The film industry is a close-knit community and stars have often come to support friends during hard times. On Tuesday, superstar Shah Rukh Khan took some time out to visit Dilip Kumar at his Mumbai residence.

The veteran actor was clearly pleased with his visitor, as was evident from the photos that his wife Saira Banu shared on social media. She tweeted, “Shahab’s mooh-bola beta — ‘son’ Shah Rukh Khan visited Shahab today. Shahab’s doing much better since he returned from the hospital. Shukar Allah.” (sic)

The veteran actor was hospitalised recently and even had to spend some time in the ICU. However, he managed to recover enough to go home on August 9. We wish him a speedy recovery.
