Veteran actor Dilip Kumar is celebrating his 98th birthday. Several celebs including Amitabh Bachchan, Madhuri Dixit, Ajay Devgn and Urmila Matondkar showered him with special birthday wishes on social media. While the yesteryear actor has not been keeping well for the past year, his wife Saira Banu had shared that they won’t be celebrating his birthday in a grand way.

A few days back, the doting wife shared that he’s “not too well” and that his “immunity is low.” She had revealed that celebs like Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan and Priyanka Chopra have been in constant touch with her regarding Dilip Kumar’s health.
