Earlier, Dr Jalil Parkar, who was treating Aslam and Ehsaan at Lilavati Hospital along with Cardiologist Nitin Gokhale, had told Hindustan Times, “They have been kept in ICU but we haven’t intubated them as yet. Considering their age and pre-condition health issues like diabetes and hypertension, we have to be extra careful while treating them.”

According to ETimes, both Ehsaan and Aslam were on non-invasive ventilator support ever since they were admitted to the hospital as the oxygen levels were low. Besides, they also had comorbidity issues like blood pressure and other age-related ailments.
“They are critical because of their age and comorbidities. Their vital organs are beginning to become a cause of concern,” the doctor was quoted saying to ETimes.
Meanwhile, Ehsaan, who was also admitted along with Aslam, continues to be critical.
