Shoaib Ibrahim gives an update about his father’s health

Amidst the immense emotional turmoil, Shoaib Ibrahim has provided a crucial health update about his father and his wife, Dipika Kakar. Through his vlog, the Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa star addressed his followers to explain the severity of his father's current condition.

Recalling his father's previous medical emergency, the actor detailed, “As you all know, my father has been hospitalized. We initially thought it was a stroke, but this time it turned out to be a brain haemorrhage. He is not doing well. The last time he had a stroke, there was a blood clot in his brain, which paralyzed him on the left side. But he was talking, and he recovered quickly; however, this time he had a lot of bleeding, and it had spread, causing speech issues for him.”

Shoaib further shared that doctors are currently closely monitoring him in the ICU, waiting for the swelling in his brain to subside before performing a procedure.

The emotional actor further expressed, “Papa is not reacting at all. The swelling has reduced, and they will perform a procedure on his brain. They will make a hole in his skull and remove the blood clots so that they do not spread. They are waiting for the swelling to subside. They don’t want to rush things; they are closely monitoring him for two days.”

Adding to the family’s worries, Shoaib revealed that his wife, Bigg Boss 12 winner Dipika Kakar, is also dealing with severe health complications. Dipika, who successfully underwent surgery for a liver tumor previously, was recently diagnosed with a couple of new, small lesions/cysts.

Shoaib revealed that Dipika had a crucial hospital appointment lined up immediately after his father's hospitalization. He shared, “Dipika also has a PET scan today, and we are tense about it. As we told you earlier, the MRI had shown some signs to worry.”

We send our deepest prayers and strength to Shoaib, Dipika, and the entire family during this incredibly difficult time.
