Veteran actor Amol Palekar has been hospitalised at the Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital in Pune. He is suffering from prolonged illness.

Amol Palekar, 77, is most known for his parallel cinema and television shows, with 'Rajnigandha', 'Chitchor', 'Gol Maal', 'Shriman Shrimati' and 'Chhoti Si Baat' being some of his most successful films. 

His wife Sandhya Gokhale told ABP Live that there is nothing to worry about Amol Palekar's health. He is recovering, and his condition is better than before. When asked about what he is suffering from, Sandhya said that this is an old illness. Due to excessive smoking, he was admitted to the hospital 10 years ago as well. But his condition is fine.

Amol has been missing from the spotlight for a long time. He returned to acting with the film, 'Halla Ho', which was released on ZEE5 last year. 

Amol Palekar has won one Filmfare award and six State awards for his work as a Best Actor. He received critical recognition for his performances in regional language films in Marathi, Bengali, Malayalam, and Kannada.
