Recently sources revealed that he has been diagnosed with dengue and he is undergoing a treatment.

According to a source, "Nawaz was rushed to hospital on October 28 when he complained of uneasiness. Various tests were conducted, but doctors had ruled out dengue and malaria. However, when his fever showed no signs of abating, they ran another round of tests on him and dengue was detected."

The number of dengue cases are on the rise in the country. This year, dengue cases have reached beyond 12,000 mark.
