Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt was admitted in Lilavati Hospital on Saturday evening after suffering from chest discomfort. 

Doctors treating him said he has been admitted in an intensive care unit but remains stable. Sanjay Dutt, aged 61, celebrated his birthday last week on July 29. On Saturday, he suffered from low oxygen saturation levels and chest discomfort. 

The actor was taken to Lilavati hospital where a rapid antigen test and RT-PCR test for Covid-19 came negative. Doctors confirmed the actor does not have coronavirus.

Doctors treating Sanjay Dutt said he has been admitted in the non-Covid ward. His treating doctor Jalil Parkar, who himself recovered from Covid-19 last month, said few more tests are being conducted to assess his medical parameters and why oxygen level dipped.

“He is stable,” said hospital’s chief operating officer Dr V Ravishankar.

Sanjay Dutt took to Twitter late Saturday and wrote: “Just wanted to assure everyone that I’m doing well. I’m currently under medical observation & my COVID-19 report is negative. With the help & care of the doctors, nurses & staff at Lilavati hospital, I should be home in a day or two. Thank you for your well wishes & blessings. ”
