On
Monday,
legendary
singer
Lata
Mangeshkar
was
rushed
to
the
hospital
at
around
2.30
am
after
she
complained
of
difficulty
in
breathing.
As
per
the
latest
reports,
the
veteran
singer
was
diagnosed
with
a
viral
chest
infection
and
is
currently
undergoing
treatment
for
the
same.
A
Hindustan
Times
report
stated
that
the
in-house
doctors
informed
that
though
the
singer's
condition
is
stabilising,
she
would
be
kept
on
ventilation
for
a
few
days
for
observation.
The
leading
daily
quoted
a
senior
doctor
from
Breach
Candy
hospital
as
saying,
"She
is
undergoing
treatment
for
pneumonia
and
considering
her
age,
we
can't
take
any
risk.
She
has
been
kept
on
(a)
high
dosage
of
antibiotics." We
hear
that
a
team
of
cardiologists
is
keeping
a
constant
eye
on
her.
As
soon
as
the
news
of
Lata's
health
scare
went
viral,
her
team
issued
an
official
statement
that
read,
"Lata
Mangeshkar
ji
had
a
viral
chest
congestion.
Keeping
her
age
in
mind,
as
a
precautionary
measure,
she
has
checked
in
to
Breach
Candy
Hospital
in
order
to
ensure
antibiotics
on
time
to
prevent
any
more
infection.
She
is
stable
and
recovering."
A
Times
Now
report
quoted
a
family
member
as
saying,
"Lata
ji
is
stable.
Her
parameters
are
good.
Honestly
speaking,
she
has
fought
so
well
that
she
is
coming
out
of
this
setback.
Being
a
singer,
her
lung
capacity
has
pulled
her
through.
Truly
a
fighter.
We
will
update
everyone
when
Lataji
gets
discharged
and
comes
home."
Mangeshkar's
younger
sister
Usha
Mangeshkar
earlier
told
PTI,
"Lata
didi
is
still
in
(the)
hospital.
She
is
under
observation.
She
is
doing
absolutely
well
and
is
stable.
She
will
be
discharged
by
tomorrow.
We
thought
it's
better
to
treat
her
at
a
hospital
because
of
the
viral
infection
so
she
is
there
for
today."
Meanwhile,
Lata
Mangeshkar's
family
issued
an
official
statement
that
read,
"Lata
di
is
stable
and
much
better.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
prayers.
We
are
awaiting
her
to
be
at
her
best
so
she
can
be
home
soon.
Thank
you
for
being
with
us
and
respecting
our
privacy."
FilmiBeat
wishes
the
veteran
singer
a
speedy
recovery!
