News of Dharmendra’s demise dominated social media on November 10 and 11 but they all turned out to be fake. A few television channels also telecast news of the veteran actor’s demise, prompting wife Hema Malini and daughter Esha Deol to issue public statements decrying and denying the news.
The veteran was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital on 31st October for pneumonia. He was put on ventilator on 10th November when he experienced difficulty in breathing. The star continues to be critical but he was discharged from hospital yesterday (12th).
