was
admitted
in
Mumbai's

Hospital,
and
had
tested

The
news
of

was
confirmed
by
the

Last
week,
two
of
Dilip
Kumar's
brothers,
Aslam
Khan
and
Eshan
Khan,
were
admitted
to
Lilavati
Hospital
after
they
complained
of
breathlessness.
Later,
they
both
tested
positive
for
COVID-19
after
the
rapid
antigen
test
and
were
immediately
admitted
to
the
Coronavirus
ward
of
the
hospital.
Their
oxygen
saturation
had
dropped
below
80%.
Last
evening,
Dr
Jalil
Parker
from
the
hospital
had
given
updates
on
their
health
and
was
quoted
as
saying
by
ETimes,
"They
are
critical
because
of
their
age
and
comorbidities.
Their
vital
organs
are
beginning
to
become
a
cause
of
concern."
Unfortunately,
Aslam
Khan
breathed
his
last
today.
