Mahesh Babu's father Krishna Ghattamaneni in hospital; read report

Mahesh Babu's father Krishna Ghattamaneni was admitted to the hospital on November 13 owing to illness. According to reports, his health condition is stable and he was admitted for a regular check-up.

Legendary Telugu actor Krishna, the father of Mahesh Babu, is reportedly in the hospital in Hyderabad. The superstar got admitted to Continental Hospital on Sunday, November 13 and is reportedly stable now. The precise cause of his hospitalisation, however, remains uncertain. We're waiting for an official confirmation on this.

According to some sources, the 79 years old is apparently dealing with respiratory issues, while other rumours state that he had a heart attack. However, PR Suresh Kondi tweeted to reassure his supporters and well-wishers that nothing to be concerned about.

A statement by the hospital said Krishna “remains in a critical state and has been put on a ventilator.”

The statement read, “Shri Ghattamaneni Krishna was brought into the emergency department of Continental Hospitals, Hyderabad at 01.15am this morning (14-11-2022) in cardiac arrest. The doctors immediately performed a CPR, resuscitated him within 20 minutes and shifted him to the ICU for treatment & observation. He currently remains in a critical state, and has been put on a ventilator. An expert, multi-disciplinary team including cardiologists, neurologists, and critical care specialists are closely monitoring his clinical condition. The family members have been appraised of his condition accordingly.”

Krishna, 79, made his acting debut in Thene Manasulu (1965) and became a well-known actor, director, and producer of movies including Mosagallagu Mosagadu, Alluri Sita Ramaraju, and Goodhachari 116.

For a few months, superstar Krishna and his family experienced hardship. Ramesh Babu, Mahesh Babu's brother and Krishna's son, died earlier this year. Indira Devi, Krishna's wife, passed away in September from age-related complications.
