The comedian Raju Srivastava’s health has been updated by actor Shekhar Suman, who also discussed their chat from around a fortnight ago. Shekhar stated in a recent interview that he observed Raju “had gotten a bit feeble” when they first met. Shekhar continued by advising the comic to “take things a bit easier” and not put as much effort into things.

Following a cardiac attack last week, Raju was hospitalised to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS). On the same day, the 58-year-old stand-up comedian had an angioplasty. According to his manager Nayan Soni, he is currently receiving life support in the ICU. However, Nayan claims that he is “slowly improving”.

Shekhar stated in an interview with Times of India: “Three days ago, Raju showed recovery by moving his fingers, and he is currently stable. I’m praying he gets better and that his health gets even better. Around 15 days ago, Raju visited the India’s Laughter Champion set, and we had a lengthy conversation in my vanity vehicle. I had noted that he had lost some strength, and I also suggested that he ease up a bit and stop pushing himself too hard. He was alright, but I did advise him to take good care of himself.”

He continued, “He said he had no illnesses and everything was fine. And then, after 15 days, we learned the dreadful news that he had been admitted to the hospital. I’ve known Raju for about 25 years, and in the 1990s, we collaborated on the fictional television programme Reporter. He is a lovely guy, and I am confident that he will soon make a full recovery because the entire country is praying for him. I keep in touch with Raju’s nephew and family, and he is a really talented man.

On Tuesday, Nayan, Raju’s manager, informed the news agency PTI that “Raju’s condition is gradually improving. He is receptive to the therapy. His health has improved, and he can now move several of his bodily parts.

He is still on a ventilator and in the ICU. He will not regain consciousness for almost a week, according to the doctors.

Raju’s rise to stardom was accelerated by his participation in The Great Indian Laughter Challenge’s inaugural season in 2005. He has appeared in Hindi movies including Aamdani Atthani Kharcha Rupaiya, Maine Pyar Kiya, Baazigar, and Bombay to Goa. Additionally, he oversees the Uttar Pradesh Film Development Council as its chairman.
