The filmmaker was admitted to hospital on Saturday after complaining of weakness
Yash Chopra (80), who had announced his retirement from film direction only last month, was admitted to Lilavati Hospital on Saturday after he complained of weakness.
A call to the hospital authorities revealed the veteran filmmaker's family has requested that no information be divulged. However, the indications are he is suffering from dengue.
In a statement, the Yash Raj Films spokesperson said: "Yash Chopra was admitted to hospital on Saturday after being diagnosed with an attack of dengue. He has been kept under observation. He is feeling much better and should be home soon. Thank you all for your concern and best wishes."
The filmmaker, who has been busy with his last directional Jab Tak Hai Jaan that is slated for release on Nov 13, is currently lodged in the ICU on the sixth floor of the hospital, a source told Mirror. He is excepted to be shifted soon to the eleventh floor as he is responding well to the treatment.
It is learnt Rani Mukerji cancelled all media events and visits to theatres to monitor audience reaction to her latest film Aiyyaa so she could be by the filmmaker's side for most of Saturday and Sunday. Jab Tak Hai Jaan stars Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma in lead roles.
