Veteran actor Kader Khan was rushed to the hospital after he complained about breathlessness. The actor is currently stationed in Canada with his son Sarfaraz and daughter-in-law Shahista. As per reports, his deteriorating health condition was one of the reasons to put him on a BiPAP ventilator instead of a normal one.
It is reported that the actor shows symptoms of pneumonia and is unable to communicate. His health continues to remain delicate. "The surgery did not go wrong. It was just that my father refused to get up after the surgery. We were told that he has to make an effort and try to start walking from the next day. He just didn't do that and..." said Sarfaraz while talking to a media portal.
The actor is said to be suffering from Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). It is a degenerative disease involving slow deterioration and loss of specific volumes of the brain. The condition leads to symptoms including loss of balance, slowing of movement, difficulty moving the eyes, and dementia. This health issue is known to be extremely rare.
Kader Khan is known for his roles in Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, Akhiyon Se Goli Maare, Joru Ka Ghulam, Haseena Maan Jaayegi and Judwaa among others.
