Just one day after celebrating husband Javed Akhatr's 75th birthday, veteran actor and wife Shaban Azmi involved in a terrible car crash on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. However, on-time treatment has helped Azmi's health to be stable as she moved to Mumbai Kokilaben Hospital on Saturday. Recently, husband Javed Akhtar has shared an important health update on Sunday, as the lyricist revealed that Shabana Azmi is doing fine.
Reportedly, Javed Akhtar said, "Don’t worry. She is in the ICU but all the scan reports are positive. It seems there’s no serious harm done." The actress is recovering fast as the doctors from the Panvel hospital, where she was first rushed, also revealed that she was responding well to the treatment. The doctors have also ruled out any chest and abdomen injuries.
On Saturday evening, Dr Santosh Shetty, Executive Director and CEO Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, released a statement that the actor was not in danger. “She is stable and under observation." However, reports say that Azmi will take at least a month to recover completely. The incident took place when Azmi's car crashed into a truck while trying to overtake on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. The accident left both the vehicles very damaged.
Meanwhile, the truck's driver has filed an FIR against Shabana’s driver Amlesh Yogendra Kamat. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also took to Twitter. He wrote, “The news of @AzmiShabana Ji’s injury in an accident is distressing. I pray for her quick recovery.”
