Veteran actor Dilip Kumar has passed away at the age of 98. He leaves behind a rich legacy of films that travelled six decades and gave Hindi cinema its great classics. Over the years Dilip Kumar has interacted with many Bollywood actors like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan. Some of them have met him in his bungalow in Bandra and while others have met him at different film events. Take a look at the pictures from these interactions :
During his 88th Birthday celebrations, a party was held at his Bandra residence where various B town celebs turned in. From Praan Saab to Madhuri Dixit to Govinda to many had come and wished the veteran actor.
Veteran actor Dilip Kumar and Saira Banu went to the wedding reception of Salman Khan’s sister Arpita Khan in Mumbai which was held on 21 Nov. 2014. He met the whole Khan family at the reception.
Dilip Kumar was also seen at Bollywood’s Mr Perfect Aamir Khan’s nephew and Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na actor Imran Khan’s wedding to Avantika Malik and blessed the couple.
When Shah Rukh Khan met the legend, Dilip Saab, on his 89th Birthday at his Bandra Bungalow. Not many people know but Shah Rukh had taken Kumar’s autograph on a life-size poster of Madhubala and Salim, and the Zero actor had mounted that in his screening theatre.
While Dilip Kumar’s contribution to the film industry is pretty well documented, a section of the audience may not know that in 2003, he was to collaborate with Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan for director Subhash Ghai’s magnum opus Mother Land, a war drama. Both the actors are extremely close to each other and they have immense respect for each other as well.
