Raju's daughter Antara confirmed the news and told ETimes TV, "Yes, he is admitted to AIIMS, but I can't confirm that he suffered a mild heart attack as I don't have that information. All I know is that he was feeling unwell, uneasy and was rushed to AIIMS. He is under doctor's supervision and observation and he is doing fine. We are in Mumbai, my mom is leaving for Delhi and she should be there in a couple of hours. Our relatives and other friends are there with dad in the hospital. I will also be travelling to Delhi tonight with my brother and we have already booked our tickets."

Comedian Sunil Pal too confirmed the same and gave an update on Raju's health and revealed that the stand-up comedian is out of danger and is doing good. Sharing the video, Sunil wrote, "Get well soon #RajuShrivastav bhai ji. 🙏स्वस्थ रहे मै यही कामना करता हूँ ❤️."
