Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt had recently shared a statement, informing fans that he will be “taking a short break” from work for “some medical treatment.” Ever since Sanjay released the statement, many have been speculating about the 61-year-old actor’s health. On Wednesday, Sanjay’s wife Maanayata Dutt shared a statement where she thanked all the actor’s well-wishers for their support. Maanayata also requested fans to ‘not fall prey to speculations and unwarranted rumours.’
Maanayata’s statement reads, “I thank everyone who has expressed their well wishes for Sanju’s speedy recovery. We need all the strength and prayers to overcome this phase. There is a lot that the family has gone through in the past years but I am confident this too shall pass. However, it is my heartfelt request to Sanju’s fans to not fall prey to speculations and unwarranted rumours, but to just help us with their ongoing love, warmth and support. Sanju has always been a fighter, and so has our family. God has yet again chosen to test us to overcome the challenges ahead. All we seek is your prayers and blessings, and we know we will emerge as winners on the other side, as we always have. Let us use this opportunity to spread light and positivity.”

A note shared on his social media profiles read, “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!”

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 🙏
