Dharmendra gets emotional on Dilip Sahab’s 101st birth anniversary
Mumbai: Today is the 101st birth anniversary of late veteran actor Dilip Kumar on Monday (December 11). He was born on 11 December 1922 in Peshawar. About two years ago, on July 7, 2021, he breathed his last at 7:30 am in Hinduja Hospital, Mumbai. Dharmendra used to call him his ‘Khuda’. Hurt by her demise, Dharmendra kept crying sitting at her bedside for a long time.
Dharmendra has shared a photo on X (Twitter) on Dilip Sahab’s birth anniversary. In this, he is seen sitting in front of Dilip Sahab’s photo. Dharmendra, who recently celebrated his 88th birthday, wrote the caption, “Today is the anniversary of our Dilip Sahab…miss him a lot.” Dharmendra has also shared a video of him.

This video is a clip of an old interview of Dilip Sahab in which he is seen saying, “After us, stories will be told in this gathering, the spring will find us, I don’t know where we will be.” This is a song from the 1953 film Baaghi, which was sung by Lata Mangeshkar. Let us tell you that when Dharmendra saw Dilip Sahab’s ‘Shaheed’, he became crazy about him. They started considering him as their ideal.
