Sujeeth Reddy the beleaguered young director of Saaho, was hospitalized on Saturday morning in Hyderabad.
He is suffering from an attack of dengue fever and is expected to recover in a few days.
According to a source close to Sujeeth there was no initial need for hospital care, “When Sujeeth was diagnosed with Dengue he was fine with staying at home and recovering under his mother’s care. But on Friday night his condition worsened, and he thought it best to get himself admitted into a hospital.”
Adding to his physiological condition is the brutal criticism that Sujeeth suffered for his chaotic and apparently plagiarised direction of Saaho.
Says the source close to Sujeeth, “He has been under severe stress because of the intense almost personalized backlash. Sujeeth’s physical condition has worsened due to the harsh treatment he has been subjected to by critics who think he has done disservice to Prabhas’ superstardom.”
