She added that the celebrations will be restricted as the legendary actor has just been treated for mild pneumonia.

Saira shared plans for Dilip Kumar`s birthday via Twitter. She also thanked his friends, fans and well-wishers for their prayers for his well-being.


She ended her message on an emotional note.


"Every year on saab`s birthday our house is open all day for friends and family to come and spend quality time with Dilip Saab. But tomorrow will be (a) bit restricted as doctors have advised Saab to be protected from any infection," read a post on behalf of Saira from Kumar`s official Twitter handle.






Earlier in August 2017, the actor was admitted to the Lilavati Hospital due to dehydration and urinary tract infection but later his health condition improved and he was taken back to his residence.

Kumar, who has appeared in some of the iconic films of Indian cinema like "Kohinoor", "Mughal-e-Azam", "Shakti", "Naya Daur" and "Ram Aur Shyam", has been ailing for a while.
