Dilip Kumar Hospitalised Following Chest Infection

Veteran actor Dilip Kumar was rushed to the Lilavati Hospital on Saturday night after he developed fever, cough, body ache and breathlessness.

Sources said that the thespian was afflicted with a condition known as broncho pneumonia in both his lungs, (which involves acute inflammation of the walls of the passageways by which air passes through the nose or mouth to the air sacs of the lungs) and that he is being administered antibiotics to dilate the air passageways.

A few days back, there had been rumours that the Devdas had passed away, following which, the veteran had taken to Twitter to thank his fans for their love, assuring everyone that he was all right.
