Veteran actor and Member of Parliament Shatrughan Sinha, currently hospitalized, has expressed relief from the online controversies and distractions stirred up by certain social media influencers. He emphasized his focus on recuperating in the company of loved ones during this period.
Sinha, aged 77, was admitted to the hospital after experiencing a severe fever last week, where he is also undergoing his routine annual health examination. Though he did not disclose specific details about his health, Sinha shared images from his hospital room, where he enjoyed watching the T20 World Cup final alongside his family and friends, celebrating India's victory.
In a social media post on Monday, Sinha stated, "Away from the 'controversy & confusion' created by some of our good friends from the social media/Youtubers. The fact is enjoying with best of our family members, brothers & dear friends."
Speculation about Sinha's health arose shortly after his daughter Sonakshi Sinha's recent marriage to Iqbal Zareer. Addressing concerns, Sinha's son, Luv Sinha, appreciated the well-wishers and clarified that his father's hospitalization was due to a high fever and not related to any surgical procedure.
Praising the Indian men's cricket team for their "magnificent win," Sinha lauded their performance in the T20 World Cup final. Under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, the Indian team secured their second T20 World Cup title since their maiden victory in 2007, defeating South Africa by seven runs in a thrilling match in Bridgetown, Barbados.
"Enjoying the most talked about International Cricket match between #SouthAfrica & #India. Also great to watch the 'hero' of not only our dear #AnushkaSharma but also the hero of the nation #ViratKohli," Sinha commented. He expressed admiration for standout performances from players like #JaspritBumrah, #HardikPandya, #SuryaKumarYadav, and particularly praised #RohitSharma.
"Both stalwarts #ViratKohli & #RohitSharma taking a bold & beautiful decision at the right time of retiring from T20s on a High note & paving the way for the next generation is truly a fantastic encouragement indeed!" he added. Sinha also acknowledged South Africa's commendable effort in the match, concluding with a patriotic message: "It was a most thrilling, exciting & entertaining match & we must give full credit to Team South Africa also for their most committed performance. God Bless! Jai Hind!"
