What happened to Prem Chopra?
Earlier in November, the Bobby actor was admitted to Mumbai`s Lilavati Hospital due to chest congestion. He was discharged a week later on November 15.
As per reports, doctors confirmed he already has an existing heart condition and had also developed a viral lung infection. While this sounded serious, doctors assured him he was never in a critical state.
The medical experts shared that these are age-related issues that are taking the veteran actor longer than usual to recover from.
