Contrary to reports of him being critical, Suman informed that the stand-up comic artist is recovering slowly and is stable at the moment. He also informed that Srivastava will recover in a week or two.

"Gradual and slow recovery of Raju Srivastava.Stable condition according to the family.Will take a week or two to recover. Overall positive," he tweeted.

"His condition remains critical. (There is) no improvement. He continues to be on life support," the source told PTI.

Last Friday, Srivastava's family released a statement on his official Instagram page, saying his condition was "stable" and requested people to "ignore any rumour/fake news being circulated".

The message read, "Dear all Raju Srivatava ji's condition is stable. We are praying for his speedy recovery. The doctors are treating him and are doing their best. Thanks to all the well-wishers for their continued love and support. Please ignore any rumour/fake news being circulated. Please pray for him (sic)."
