Poonam Dhillon admitted to Lilavati Hospital, CINTAA president diagnosed with Dengue

Veteran actress Poonam Dhillon, the president of Cine and TV Artistes Association (CINTAA), has been admitted to Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai after being diagnosed with dengue. Journalist Vickey Lalwani shared the news, stating that the senior actress has been in the hospital for several days and is currently on the road to recovery. Fans and well-wishers have flooded social media with messages of support, hoping for her speedy recovery.

However, Poonam Dhillon has recently been accused of dictatorship within CINTAA. The organisation's general secretary, Upasana Singh, accused her and vice president Padmini Kolhapure of sending show-cause notices to those who did not comply with their demands, describing it as their favorite tactic. Poonam Dhillon has refuted these allegations, stating that she does not wish to engage in any mudslinging, as it is unclassy.

She added that the allegations reveal the mindset and frustration of a person who did not receive the importance she believed she deserved. The resigning members and General Secretary Upasana Singh have called for fresh, transparent elections, presenting Poonam Dhillon as the general secretary at every platform.
