Pune: Veteran actor Amol Palekar, 77, known for his work in parallel cinema and television shows like ‘Rajnigandha’, ‘Chitchor’, ‘Gol Maal’, ‘Shriman Shrimati’ and ‘Chhoti Si Baat’ is admitted at the Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital in Pune.
His wife Sandhya Gokhale told ABP Live, “There is nothing to worry about Amol Palekar’s health. He is recovering and his condition is better than before.” On being asked about what he is suffering from, Sandhya said, “This is an old illness. Due to excessive smoking, he was admitted to hospital 10 years ago as well. But his condition is fine.”
Amol returned to acting last year with the film, ‘Halla Ho’, released on ZEE5. It was a true story of Dalit women who attacked a rapist in an open court. It also featured Rinku Rajguru, Barun Sobti, Upendra Limaye, Indraneil Sengupta, Saloni Batra and Sahil Khattar.
