Friends of OPM icon Hajji Alejandro have requested prayers after he was rushed to the hospital and intubated.

In an Instagram post, Kapuso broadcaster Arnold Clavio said Hajji has stage 4 colon cancer that has spread to his lungs and liver.

"Nothing is impossible with prayers. Healing prayers sent," wrote Arnold.

Among the celebrities who wished Hajji well in Arnold's post include Sharon Cuneta, Sharmaine Arnaiz, Shintaro Valdez, Dingdong Avanzado, Connie Sison, Aga Muhlach, and Allan K.
