Ace politician and comedian Raju Srivastava recently regained consciousness after being hospitalized at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) last month after suffering a heart attack. The actor had a heart collapse while exercising and was sent to the hospital. According to reports from earlier this week, the comedian's minor temperature led to the need to restart his ventilator. Raju has allegedly made more progress since then.
Chief Advisor Ajit Saxena gives Raju’s health update
Ajit Saxena, Raju Srivastava's chief advisor, disclosed that the comedian's health has slightly improved. He said, “Raju Bhaiya's hands and feet have started moving. He opens his eyes and looks at his wife Shikha Srivastava. He touches her hand and tries to tell her that he will get well soon.
Since Raju Srivastava was first admitted to AIIMS, only his wife Shikha has been seeing him in order to keep him free of infections. Earlier, when reports stated that the Baazigar actor's brain had stopped functioning, his family had urged supporters and the media to only believe remarks made by them.
Raju Srivastava gained notoriety for his appearance on The Great Indian Laughter Challenge's inaugural season (2005). Aamdani Atthani Kharcha Rupaiya, Baazigar, Maine Pyar Kiya, and Bombay to Goa are just a few of the movies he has acted in. He also serves as the chairman of the Uttar Pradesh Film Development Council.
