Actor Faraaz Khan who was seen in films like ‘Mehndi’ and ‘Fareb’ has been diagnosed with brain infection and pneumonia. He is battling for life in an ICU of Vikram Hospital, Bangalore. Faraaz is the son of 70’s Bollywood star Yusuf Khan. A sum of around Rs 25 lakh is required for Faraaz Khan’s treatment. Faraaz’s younger brother has appealed to netizens for help.
Speaking to TOI, Fahmaan said that Faraaz was suffering from cough and chest infection for nearly a year. When his condition worsened he was admitted to a hospital. Later when he also suffered from three consecutive seizures he was shifted to the emergency ward.
Here is what he said:
He added, “Bhai has been on a ventilator for the past five days and as per doctors, there are 50 % chances of his survival. While he is responding to treatment, he is still unconscious. For further treatment, we need Rs 25 lakhs. Most of our savings has already been spent on the treatment and I have no idea what is going to happen or how we are going to manage the finances for his treatment. Due to the pandemic, everyone is going through a financial crisis, but we cannot lose hope and so, we are seeking support through fundraising.”
Actress Pooja Bhatt has also come forward to help. She has asked netizens to donate generously to help the actor. She tweeted, “Please share and contribute if possible. I am. Would be grateful if any of you can as well.”
Faraaz featured alongside Rani Mukerji in ‘Mehndi’. He also has films like ‘Dulhan Banoo Main Teri’ and ‘Chand Bujh Gaya’ to his credit.
We wish the actor a speedy recovery.
