Javed Akhtar, who has given many memorable songs and famous stories to Hindi cinema, was seen at Mumbai airport with his wife and actress Shabana Azmi on Sunday. During this time, his journey looked a bit different from the usual one, because he was being brought out in a wheelchair. The photographers present there recorded their photographs and videos, which later started circulating on the internet. After watching the footage, concern arose among his fans about his health. Many people took to social media to know why he needed a wheelchair. However, the information revealed has not given any official details about his health condition, any illness or recent treatment. Therefore, it would not be appropriate to reach any conclusion regarding his health only on the basis of the video.
Javed was seen smiling in front of the cameras
The photographers present at the airport tried to take pictures of Javed Akhtar as soon as they saw him. During this time he appeared calm and happy. Shabana Azmi is also present with him in the video and both are seen posing in front of the cameras.
On the request of the photographers, Javed Akhtar stood up from the wheelchair and got the pictures clicked. He smiled and talked to the people present there. Some fans who watched the video felt relieved after this scene, while many still asked for information about his health.

Such a scene has happened before also

On that occasion he had also said that who would walk such a distance? It was evident from his earlier statement that he was interacting with the photographers in a casual manner. Now after a similar scene has surfaced once again, discussion about old pictures and videos has also started.
Questions from fans on social media
After the new video aired, his fans are constantly asking about his well-being. Some fans wished him a speedy recovery, while others expected the family or his team to clarify the situation.
