Nadiya Ke Paar Actress Savita Bajaj Gets Financial Help From Supriya Pilgaonkar

Veteran actress Savita Bajaj, best known for films such as Beta Ho Toh Aisa, Nadiya Ke Paar, Nishant, Nazrana, is facing a major financial crunch and is currently hospitalised. The 97-year-old is currently hospitalised after she complained of breathlessness. CINTAA EC member Nupoor Alankar, who is looking after the ailing actress shared that Savita would require monetary help to continue her treatment.

Nupur revealed that she is indeed on oxygen support and needs immediate funds as the hospital might discharge her if she cannot pay them.

But now actress Supriya Pilgaonkar has come forward to help the veteran actress by paying the hospital bills. Confirming the same, Nupur, in a conversation with The Times Of India said, 'Supriya Pilgaonkar has come forward and helped and some committee members of CINTAA too have pitched in so that we can pay some portion of the hospital.' She further added, 'Savita Bajaj is a woman of huge self-respect, and just yesterday some media persons landed up at the hospital stressed her out so much that she had to be shifted to the ICU.'

Savita Bajaj who has done over 50 films had earlier shared with ETimes, “I want someone to build an old age home for actors like me who are on their own. I don’t have my own home in Mumbai even after working for so many years. I live on rent in a one-room kitchen in Malad. I pay Rs 7,000 as rent. I didn’t want to ask for money, but it’s going to be difficult for me to manage now. I have earned a lot, helped those in need, but today I need help. My savings have dried up. I have spent all the money on my failing health. I have developed serious breathing issues and don’t know how I will manage now.”

We wish her a speedy recovery!
