Ailing actress Savita Bajaj gets financial help from actress Supriya Pilgaonkar to pay hospital bills

The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns have hit the lives of so many people across the country. The entertainment world, especially senior actors has been affected badly as many of them are running out of work along with their savings. Only a few days back, after veteran actress Savita Bajaj opened up about her poor health condition and the financial crunch she is going through, actors association CINTAA's EC member Nupur Alankar revealed that she is indeed on oxygen support and needs immediate funds as the hospital might discharge her if she cannot pay them. Now, actress Supriya Pilgaonkar has come forward to help the 79-year-old veteran actress in paying the hospital bills. Confirming the same, Nupur Alankar, in a conversation with The Times Of India said, 'Supriya Pilgaonkar has come forward and helped and some committee members of CINTAA too have pitched in so that we can pay some portion of the hospital.' She further added, 'Savita Bajaj is a woman of huge self-respect, and just yesterday some media persons landed up at the hospital stressed her out so much that she had to be shifted to the ICU.'
