However, when News18 contacted Dutt’s team about the unconfirmed reports of the actor’s cancer diagnosis, they simply said, “we will issue a statement tomorrow.”
Dutt, who was hospitalised in Mumbai’s Lilavati during the weekend due to breathing problems and chest discomfort, on Tuesday, conveyed to fans that he was taking a break. Dutt, 61, said he needed the break for medical treatment and urged fans not to pay attention to any other speculation.
“Hi friends, I am taking a short break from work for some medical treatment. My family and friends are with me and I urge my well-wishers not to worry or unnecessarily speculate. With your love and good wishes, I will be back soon,” read the note Dutt shared on social media.
Dutt is among the busiest actors in Bollywood. Last year, he was seen in three films–Kalank, Prassthanam and Panipat.
He will next be seen in Sadak 2, along with Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapur. Sadak 2 is a follow-up of Mahesh Bhatt’s 1991 hit Sadak and is produced by his brother Mukesh Bhatt. The sequel reunites the original film’s lead pair of Sanjay Dutt and Pooja Bhatt. Sadak 2 marks Mahesh Bhatt’s return to filmmaking after 20 years.
