Late on Monday evening, Dharmendra returned home from a Khar hospital with elder son Sunny Deol. The veteran actor had been admitted last week after being diagnosed with dengue.

The duo was accompanied by Bobby Deol to the hospital. According to a source close to the family, Dharmendra was keen to return home and since he was responding well to the treatment, he was discharged after three days.

When asked if Deol Sr was contemplating heading to their farmhouse in Lonavala, where he spends considerable time, the source shared, “He’s recovering fine and is staying at home. Currently, there are no plans at the farmhouse.”

Incidentally, a day before he was admitted, Sunny returned from Jaipur where he was attending the 70th birthday celebrations of J P Dutta. The filmmaker has directed Dharmendra in Ghulami (1985), Batwara and Hathyar (1989), and collaborated with Sunny on Yateem (1988) and Border (1997). In 1993, he got the father-son duo together for Kshatriya.
