Veteran
actress
Surekha
Sikri,
who
was
seen
in
popular
shows
like
Balika
Vadhu
and
Ek
Tha
Raja
Ek
Thi
Rani,
has
been
admitted
to
Criticare
Hospital,
after
she
suffered
a
brain
stroke.
The
nurse,
who
takes
care
of
her,
revealed
that
at
around
11
am,
Sikri
had
a
stroke
while
she
was
drinking
her
juice.
The
nurse
was
quoted
by
Mumbai
Mirror
as
saying,
"I
rushed
her
to
the
hospital
and
she
is
currently
being
treated.
I
couldn't
get
her
admitted
to
any
other
hospital
because
of
high
fees.
We
do
not
have
that
kind
of
money." She
has
also
appealed
to
the
members
of
film
fraternity
to
help
the
actress
financially
during
these
tough
times.
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
Surekha
was
last
seen
in
Ayushmann
Khurrana's
film
Badhaai
Ho
(2018),
post
which
she
suffered
a
stroke.
However,
she
recovered
soon
and
a
nurse
was
appointed
to
take
care
of
her
round
the
clock.
After
this,
she
was
not
seen
in
any
film
or
show
and
had
even
lost
a
considerable
amount
of
weight.
Recently,
the
actress
had
opened
up
on
government
guidelines
that
asked
all
actors
above
the
age
of
65
to
not
be
present
on
sets
due
to
the
pandemic.
She
called
it
an
unfair
decision
as
she
was
not
able
to
work
for
many
months
because
of
lockdown
and
was
not
able
to
generate
any
income
for
herself
or
her
family.
Surekha
had
also
said
that
her
health
is
fine
and
wanted
to
take
up
projects.
But
now
that
the
ban
has
been
lifted,
Surekha
suffered
another
brain
stroke.
We
hope
Surekha
gets
the
required
help
and
recovers
soon.
