Veteran actor Dilip Kumar has been hospitalized after he complained of breathlessness on June 29. The 98-year-old legendary actor is currently in the ICU at Mumbai’s Hinduja Hospital and his condition is stable.

“He was admitted yesterday during the day due to breathlessness. Given his age and recent hospitalisation, the family decided to take him to the hospital as a precautionary measure. He is fine. He is in the ICU so that the doctors can monitor him,” a source told PTI.
