Producer Nitin Manmohan’s condition continues to remain ‘very serious’, on ventilator in ICU after heart attack

MUMBAI: Film producer Nitin Manmohan’s health – who was rushed to a hospital after suffering a heart attack on Saturday night – continues to remain in the danger zone and is stated to be “very serious” according to doctors attending on him in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of a private hospital.

He is on ventilator support and other life-saving equipment including a heart-lung machine, sources said.

Manmohan known for backing movies such as ‘Dus’, “Bol Radha Bol” and “Laadla”, was admitted to a private hospital for cardiac issues, after suffering a major heart attack.

The veteran filmmaker reportedly suffered a massive heart attack on Saturday evening and was rushed to the Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in a serious condition but reached just in time.

According to a hospital official, Nitin Manmohan is currently in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and put on ventilator and other life saving equipment and his condition remains very precarious in the danger zone.

”He was admitted to the hospital Saturday night due to cardiac issues. He came in a very critical condition. He is in the ICU,” the official told news agency PTI.

According to an E Times report, the veteran filmmaker is responding to treatment but not yet out of danger. “His vital parameters are stable at the moment but he was put on a ventilator, and continues to remain on it until now,” a doctor told E Times.

Sanjay Dutt’s former secretary Kaleem is constantly by his side in the ICU. Kaleem and Nitin Manmohan go back a long way and have worked together on several projects.

Nitin Manmohan is the son of the late actor-villain Manmohan who had a very striking and dominating presence om screen, and was known for films like ‘Brahmachari’, ‘Gumnaam’, ‘Naya Zamana’, “Naya Zamana” and several others.

We are doing our best and the best treatment and facilities are provided to him, a hospital source said.
