Veteran actor Dilip Kumar is stable and is likely to be discharged from Lilavati Hospital here soon.
"He is fine now and he will be shifted from the ICU (intensive care unit) to the general ward soon. Most probably he will be discharged in the next three to four days," Dilip Kumar's wife Saira Banu's manager Murshid Khan, told IANS.
The 90-year-old actor was admitted to the hospital Sunday evening after he complained of uneasiness. Doctors later diagnosed a heart attack.
The thespian, known for movies like "Jwar Bhata" "Mela", "Naya Daur", "Tarana", "Ganga Jamuna", "Leader", "Mughal-E-Azam", "Shakti", "Karma" and "Saudagar", has entertained movie buffs for six decades. He decided to retire post the 1998 film "Qila".
