Veteran actor Tiku Talsania, known for his unforgettable comic roles in iconic films like Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa and Ishq, has shocked his fans after falling seriously ill. On Friday evening, the 70-year-old actor was rushed to the Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Mumbai following a medical emergency. Initial reports suggested that Tiku had suffered a heart attack, but his wife, Deepti Talsania, clarified the truth on Saturday.
Deepti explained, “It was a brain stroke, not a heart attack.” She went on to share how her husband had attended a movie screening earlier that evening, feeling unwell around 8 PM. Without wasting time, Tiku was swiftly taken to the hospital where he is now under observation and receiving treatment.
