Here are some excerpts from the actor’s interview:

I had to take a discharge from the hospital because I had no money to pay for the daily expenses of the hospital. Also with Covid-19 the risk of infection is high so it's better that I visit hospital only for my dialysis, so I can either afford dialysis or the hospital expenses.

While updating his health condition, he said: I go through dialysis 4 times a week and each dialysis cost me Rs 2000. Today only I have deposited Rs 1 lakh for my dialysis. But slowly all my money is getting over and I think very soon I will have to stop my dialysis because I will be left with no money. The doctors have informed me that the excess water from my body has been removed but my kidneys have been damaged and for my body to function I need a kidney transplant.

He also informed that he’s getting support from all over India, ‘Lots of people have come forward to help me and it feels so good to get so much love. People not only from the film industry but even from my college have come forward to help me. I graduated from my college 25 years ago and some of them don't even know me, especially the younger generation, they have also come forward to help me.’

The actor added that he’s been in the showbiz industry for 40 years and always felt an outsider, but the love he received off-lately has changed his thoughts.
