Doctor reveals Kambli’s recovery period
While Kambli remains resilient and regains his health, Dr Vivek Dwivedi from Akruti Health City Hospital has stated that he will need good rehabilitation, which means physiotherapy and nutritional support to overcome his current situation which includes degenerative memory due to alcoholism.
