Shafqat Cheema’s Son Denies Rumors of Father in Coma

Pakistani actor Sheheryar Cheema has denied circulating rumors that his father, veteran actor Shafqat Cheema, is in a coma. In a recent statement, Sheheryar clarified that his father is not in critical condition, dismissing reports that sparked concern among fans and the media.

Pneumonia, Not a Coma

The confusion began when claims surfaced that Shafqat Cheema, known for his villainous roles in Punjabi cinema, had suffered a stroke and lost consciousness. Sheheryar confirmed that his father was only diagnosed with pneumonia. “Alhamdulillah, he is feeling well and is home now,” Sheheryar shared during an interview with a local magazine. He reassured fans that his father’s health has improved, and he is no longer hospitalized.

Video Denounces “Fake News”

Sheheryar also addressed the situation through a video, where he condemned the spread of misinformation about his father’s health. He stated that the news of Shafqat Cheema being in a coma was completely false. The actor had been briefly hospitalized at Lahore’s Shalimar Hospital but has since been discharged after receiving treatment for pneumonia.

Incorrect Reports Stir Confusion

Earlier reports had falsely suggested that Shafqat Cheema was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) due to a brain blood clot. This misinformation led to a wave of concern on social media, with fans expressing a mix of emotions. Many believed the reports and feared for the actor’s life, while others remained skeptical and waited for confirmation.

Fans Express Relief

Once the truth was revealed, many fans expressed relief. Messages of support and prayers poured in for the veteran actor, who has long been beloved for his roles as iconic villains in Pakistani cinema. Fans were grateful to hear that the actor was recovering and no longer in a critical condition.

However, the incident also sparked a conversation about media responsibility. Several fans and industry insiders urged the media to verify facts before reporting on sensitive issues, especially concerning well-known figures. They called for responsible journalism and asked the press to avoid causing unnecessary panic by spreading unverified information.
