Salim Khan battles 'minimal brain haemorrhage': Veteran screenwriter’s age, health update & IMPRESSIVE net worth revealed

Salim Khan is currently in the ICU, recovering gradually from a minimal brain haemorrhage, with doctors monitoring his condition closely due to his age.

Salim Khan, the legendary screenwriter of the Salim-Javed duo, has suffered a minimal brain haemorrhage, his attending doctor Jaleel Parkar confirmed. The 90-year-old veteran is currently under intensive care.

Dr Parkar stated that the minimal brain haemorrhage does not require surgery. Earlier discussions about discharging him have been postponed, with further decisions pending based on his recovery.

A Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) was performed on Salim Khan. He is currently on a ventilator in the ICU for precautionary support due to elevated blood pressure at the time of admission. The doctor noted that recovery is progressing slowly, primarily due to his age.

Salim Khan was admitted yesterday by his family doctor, Sandeep Chopra. In a previous update on Tuesday, Dr Parkar said:
