Indian Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan poses during the launch of the Filmfare magazine edition featuring a cover image of Bollywood actors Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan, and himself in Mumbai on April 10, 2013.
Thespian Dilip Kumar turns 90-years-old today. The actor had earlier denied reports of a big birthday bash being planned for this special day, saying that he and his wife Saira Banu still have to recover from the death of their friends Yash Chopra and Bal Thackeray.
The actor, also known as the Tragedy King Of Bollywood, reigned on the silver screen in 1950s and 1960s and is remembered for his performances in sentimental scenes. Despite the fact that he is generally associated with tragedies, Dilip Kumar played varied roles in his long, successful career and also experimented with different genres.
