Legendary Bengali actor Soumitra Chatterjee is still in a “high-risk zone” though his parameters are stable, doctors attending to the thespian said on Monday. The 85-year-old Dadasaheb Phalke awardee has fever and continues to be in a “drowsy, confusional state”, which is a matter of concern, they said.
Chatterjee might have to undergo an MRI later on Monday, doctors at the private hospital, where he is being treated for COVID-19, said. “He is stable, had good sleep last night, but is still in a high-risk zone. His oxygen saturation level has improved,” a doctor said.
Chatterjee was given plasma therapy twice on Saturday and the octogenarian also underwent a CT scan. He was admitted to hospital on Tuesday after he tested positive for the virus.
The sources said Chatterjee was unwell for the past couple of days and reportedly suffering from fever. He was shooting for a documentary titled ‘Abhijan’ directed by actor Parambrata Chattopadhyay.
He had attended the shooting floor at Bharatlaxmi Studio on October 1. The next shooting schedule was on October 7. Last year, he had suffered a bout of pneumonia and was admitted to a hospital for a few days.
