At both the receptions, the Tragedy King walked slowly, with both his hands held by Saira Bano and another person. Gone was the strident voice of Thakur Veer Singh of film Saudagar, as Dilip Kumar sat silent throughout the events.
At his 90th birthday celebrated on December 11, 2011 at his iconic bungalow in Pali Hill, the who's who of Bollywood arrived to felicitate the living legend. Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Shatrughan Sinha, Shah rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Yash Chopra were there.
Dharmendra danced in glee to celebrate Dilip saab's birthday. He coaxed Dilip Kumar to blow off the birthday cake candles, which the tragedy king did.
