The actor wasn't keeping well from the last few years and was also on dialysis.
In 2020, the actor was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit and had started his dialysis. Cine And TV Artists Associated (CINTAA) had appealed on behalf of the actor to provide financial help. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had announced Rs 20 lakh assistance for the treatment of the actor. Bollywood actor Sonu Sood had also come forward for help.
His brother shedding light on the same to an online publication said that he had not been keeping well for a while now. He had an infection in his kidney and was admitted to Mumbai's Hinduja Hospital back then. After being hospitalised for a month and a half, he started to get better. However, he was required to get dialysis, from time to time. Since he could afford the regular dialysis, he opted for an ayurvedic treatment. That didn’t help. He got breathless recently. His chest was filled with water and so dialysis was started again, which gave him temporary relief.
