Salman Khan’s family displeased with doctors
If a report by Variety India is to be believed, the actor and his family have asked the hospital authorities not to share any information regarding Salim Saab’s health. “Health is a private matter. Ideally, no updates should be shared with the media, and any communication should be left entirely to the family, if and when they choose to address fans and well-wishers,” a source close to the family told the entertainment portal. “Salman and his family were displeased with the doctor’s public statement and have clearly conveyed to the authorities that they do not want any further details disclosed,” the insider added.
“It is understandable that there is immense public interest in Salim Saab’s well-being, but medical information is a confidential matter. The family wants to avoid any unnecessary speculation or media scrutiny surrounding Salim Khan’s condition,” the source stated.
About Salim Khan’s health
The veteran screenwriter was admitted by his family doctor after his BP soared and he suffered a brain haemorrhage. He was also put on a ventilator to ensure his condition does not worsen. Confirming the same, doctors had said, “He was having jerks, and his blood pressure was high. We treated him. We had to put him on a ventilator so that his condition does not worsen. It wasn’t because he was critical. We conducted the required investigations. Today, we performed a small procedure on him. The procedure is called DSA (digital subtraction angiography).”
