Saira Banu is recuperating in the ICU ward of the Hinduja Hospital, where she was admitted a few days ago after she complained of uneasiness. News reports suggested that three days back, the veteran actress felt a sharp and sudden drop in her blood pressure, and was rushed to the hospital. She was shifted to the ICU ward today, and is reportedly stable.
Details: Oxygen level is still low, difficulty in breathing remains
Reports further said that she was taken to the Khar hospital due to a minor heart attack, but there has been no official confirmation of the same. Even Faisal Farooqui, her family friend, hasn't said anything yet. Banu's condition is better now, but her oxygen level is still not up to the mark, due to which she is still having difficulty in breathing.
