Quick Read
Veteran star Dharmendra has been in the news this week due to his health. On Tuesday, false reports of his demise also surfaced but were immediately dismissed by his family. On Wednesday, Dharmendra was discharged from Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital and is currently being treated at home. Amid this, several celebs are slamming paparazzi for stationing outside his house and creating a ruckus. Now, his Sholay co-star Amitabh Bachchan has also shared a cryptic note.
The megastar shared the cryptic post on Friday but didn`t name anyone in particular. "No ethics no sense of responsibility just an avenue of personal gain, without any consideration of the moment. Disturbing and disgusting," the 83-year-old actor wrote on his blog. Bachchan`s post comes amid the relentless media coverage of his Sholay co-star Dharmendra`s health struggles.
