Bollywood actor John Abraham, who was treated for typhoid and viral fever at the Lilavati Hospital, left the hospital early this morning at 0530 hrs.

According to sources, though the hospital had issued the discharge papers last night, Abraham waited till early morning to escape the media glare.

Abraham, who was hospitalised for a week, left with his girlfriend actress Bipasha Basu.

He was admitted to Lilavati Hospital on December 6, after taking ill during the shooting of his film ''Kabul Express'' in Kabul.
