Expressing concern over her husband Dilip Kumar's fragile health, veteran actress Saira Banu has asked his fans to pray that the stress related to an 18-year-old case should not affect him.
Saira Banu shared this with a thread of tweets on the 94-year-old actor's Twitter handle ahead of the hearing scheduled to take place tomorrow.
Her tweets read, "From Saira Banu: Breaks my heart to inform @TheDilipKumar fans. tomm, Tuesday, 18-yr-old court case in which Saab has been associated."
The post further said, "will be up for judgement hearing at 14 Met. Magistrate court, Girgaum, presided by Hon. Magistrate BS Kharade..."
She also praised Dilip Kumar for not praying for adjournment of tomorrow's hearing.
"At 94 yrs, Saab's health is delicate, facing neurological problems, yet Saab has never prayed for case adjournment," she tweeted.
"Hope serious consternation n stress caused don't affect his condition further. Saab needs peace n rest. I seek your prayers n support," she said in a series of tweets.
The actor, who was bestowed with the prestigious Padma Vibhushan Award in 2015 for his immense contribution to the Indian Cinema, is expected to be present in the court during the hearing.
