It looks to be in a pretty large pot for the size of the plant. I’d opt for repotting it into something no more than 1-2 inches wider in diameter than the width of the plant’s root ball. If the bottom leaves have shriveled like that, you might want to give the roots a check for any signs of distress or rot. Hope this helps.
