Soon after the news broke, his son, actor Sunny Deol, was spotted arriving at the hospital along with his sons, Karan and Rajveer Deol, to check on the veteran star.

Over the past few days, reports and rumours surrounding Dharmendra’s health have been making headlines. Earlier, when the news came out that he was allegedly on life support, Sunny Deol’s team later rubbished the exaggerations and assured fans, saying, “It’s rumour-mongering like always. Sir is getting better. He’s under observation. There’s nothing to worry.”
