Mission
Mangal's
director
Jagan
Shakti
was
rushed
to
the
hospital
after
losing
consciousness
at
a
party
on
January
25,
2020.
It
was
later
known
that
he
was
suffering
a
blood
clot
in
his
brain
and
is
undergoing
treatment
for
the
same.
The
big
star
of
Mission
Mangal,
Akshay
Kumar
is
reported
to
be
taking
care
of
Jagan
Shakti's
medical
expenses.
He
is
apparently
very
attached
to
the
director
and
stepped
forward
to
help
out
as
soon
as
he
heard
the
news.
Hindustan
Times
quoted
a
source
as
saying,
"Akshay
is
very
attached
to
every
director
he
has
worked
with,
and
doesn't
step
back
from
helping
them
in
any
way,
apart
from
the
various
social
causes
he
is
anyway
associated
with.
He
was
taken
aback
when
he
heard
this
news,
and
made
sure
his
team
immediately
reached
out
to
Jagan's
family
to
take
care
of
all
the
medical
expenses."
Dalip
Tahil,
another
Mission
Mangal
actor,
also
corroborated
this
news
as
he
told
Mumbai
Mirror
that
he
heard
that
Akshay
was
among
the
first
to
know
and
got
Jagan
admitted
to
the
hospital,
and
is
even
taking
care
of
things.
According
to
