Sawan Kumar Tak is hospitalised in critical condition, his nephew asks fans to pray for a recovery

Sawaan Kumar Tak, the director, producer, writer & lyricist of blockbuster hits like ‘Sanam Bewafa’, ‘Souten’ and ‘Sajan Bina Suhagan’ has been admitted to Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Mumbai. He is currently in the intensive care unit of the hospital.

Sawan Kumar’s nephew Navin Kumar Tak spoke to ETimes and told, “He was admitted to the hospital a few days ago. He’s had a history of lung-related ailments, but this time he’s serious and his heart is not in a good condition. We are asking the fans and followers for their prayers so that uncle can pull through this difficult time.”

The filmmaker is known for giving breaks to acclaimed actors like Sanjeev Kumar and Mehmood Junior aka Naeem Sayyed.

He had produced ‘Naunihal’ on a shoestring budget, but the film had a Presidential mention at the National Awards and it was the film that introduced Sanjeev Kumar to the world of Hindi movies. His first film as director was ‘Gomti Ke Kinare with Meena Kumari’.
