-

MUMBAI: Yesteryear superstar Dilip Kumar was rushed to Lilavati Hospital on Wednesday owing to kidney complicati­ons and dehydratio­n. Doctors said he is stable and currently recuperati­ng. “There is no cause for concern.” The major reason of his admission was dehydratio­n, which simultaneo­usly impacts other organs as well,” doctors at the hospital said. The 94-year-old actor has been facing medical complicati­ons in recent years. Last year, he was hospitalis­ed in April due to fever and nausea, and in December to treat a swelling in his right leg. Kumar has acted in over 65 films in his career spanning over six decades and is known for iconic roles in movies such as Devdas, Naya Daur, Mughal-e-Azam, Ganga Jamuna, Kranti, and Karma.
