'Learned my lesson': Dharmendra shares health update after hospitalization
Bollywood legend Dharmendra, who was admitted to a hospital in Mumbai recently, shared a video online where he talked about the lessons he learned from that episode. He said a person must not overdo things and know their limits. The yesteryear superstar was taken to Breach Candy Hospital in the city last week for a muscle pull. He got discharged on Sunday.
What did the veteran star say?
Taking to his social media handles, Dharmendra gave his fans assurance that he was alright now. Speaking from his house, the 86-year-old said, "Friends, don't do anything over. I did it and suffered a big muscle pull at the back." Retaining his goofy lopsided smile, Dharmendra mentioned he had to go to the hospital for two to four days because of that.
