Surekha Sikri Is Not Responding Sufficiently To Treatments, Says Hospital Authorities; Actress Suffered An Acute Stroke

Veteran actress Surekha Sikri, who was seen in Badhaai Ho and had also bagged the National Award for her performance, had suffered a brain stroke a few days back. She is in the hospital in Mumbai, and hospital authorities have claimed that she isn't responding sufficiently to treatments.

According to a report in TOI, the hospital authorities, where Surekha Sikri is now being treated, claimed that the treatment would take some time because she suffered an acute stroke. An official was quoted saying, "The clot will have to be removed by medicines (thinners). Surekhaji is also in a bit of a confused state of mind. She isn't responding sufficiently."

The neurologist who is treating the actress said, "Blood thinners have been administered and this will take time. She talks but only one word at a time. She has had an acute stroke, her responses are faint and slow, and this will take time."

Today, her family refuted claims that the actress needed financial help. Many of her colleagues and co-stars from the industry are praying for her speedy recovery. While Gajraj Rao had come forward to help the actress, Ayushmann Khurrana assured that he is always beside her. May she get well soon.
