Jyothi Venkatesh

On 6^th night the renowned cinematographer Nadeem Khan, who is also the son of the late writer Rahi Masoom Raza, besides being the husband of actress cum singer Parvati Khan fell down the stairs and had a brain injury, with a rib fracture and a collar bone fracture. A brain surgery was taken at the hospital. He continues to remain unconscious in his ICCU ward at Lilawati in Bandra where he is silently fighting his own battle.

Says his wife Parvati, “Day before yesterday a tracheotomy was performed on him, which is a tube connected to the air pipe in his throat to help him breathe better. The ventilator tube down his throat into his lungs is causing trauma to his vocal chords and is extremely uncomfortable for the patient and also there is a risk of infection setting in when it stays in for long periods, as it is a foreign object after all. Last night, his heart rate shot up to 150 and emergency treatment was administered. His heart rate has been brought under control by the cardiologist attending to him and he was taken for a CT scan this morning. We are awaiting the report. Your kind prayers and good wishes are certainly helping him. His vitals are stable.”

We at bollyy.com also wish Nadeem a speedy recovery and we hope that Parvati Khan and their only son are able to see Nadeem Khan spring up from his bed and swings into action very soon. Our best wishes are with the family.
