His team has since clarified he's stable and under observation.

A hospital staff member confirmed that Dharmendra's condition is stable, alleviating concerns. "No, right now nothing to worry. He is stable. His parameters are okay-the heart rate is 70, the blood pressure is 140 by 80. His urine output is also good." The staff member explained that the actor was admitted due to breathlessness and is currently in the ICU.
