Kangana Ranaut quashes reports of Kamal Jain being critical: He is doing fine, I am in touch with himJan 20 (AZINS) Kangana Ranaut, on Sunday, dismissed reports of 'Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi' producer Kamal Jain suffering a paralytic stroke.

“He is doing fine. The reports are misleading. He fell sick last week and is on his way to recovery. I am in touch with him everyday. Request everyone to please stop backing sensational reports,” Kangana told Times Now.

"He's not critical. Yes he's hospitalized but not due to paralysis or any life threatening thing as being reported. He should be back to normal soon. Some vested interests are keen to make a controversy out of it," Kamal's spokesperson said in a statement.

Earlier this morning, reports of him having been put on ventilator had gone viral.

Jain had tweeted about his condition on Saturday, "Dear friends, this certainly is not the best time to be in hospital. Hope to get well soon and enjoy the success of our collective dream & hardwork. My best wishes to all."

“I will be back as soon as possible, till then I’ll be with you in spirit and soul,” he added.

Read Kamal Jain’s message to Team Manikarnika:

Certainly not the best time to be in the hospital and not being able to be in the middle of hard work bearing fruits.

Missing the team of Manikarnika, Kangana Ranaut, Prasoon ji, Vijeyandra ji, Shankar Ehsan Loy, Ankita, Mishti and others in the final leg of promotions.

Special thanks to Punit sir without his absolute faith in all of us, we would not have been here

I will be back as soon as possible, till then I’ll be with you in spirit and soul.

I reserve my special thanks to very important pillar Shariq and Team Zee Studios who have been at it to ensure the film reaches everywhere.

Guys we worked so hard for 2 years to realise this dream and to make Manikarnika the blockbuster it deserves to be made as.

I hope we all get to enjoy the success of our collective dream, honesty and hard work. Jai Hind!

'Manikarnika' is scheduled to release on January 25 over the Republic Day weekend.
