On Independence day eve, Dilip saab's 'mooh bola beta' Shah Rukh Khan visited the ailing superstar. Dilip Kumar's wife Saira Banu shared the pictures of the two actors which spoke volumes about the love and respect SRK has for the legendary actor.

In an interview to Mumbai Mirror, Saira Banu gave details of the meeting. She said SRK had called earlier, when Dilip saab was hospitalised and apologised for not being around as he was busy travelling and promoting his film, Jab Harry Met Sejal. On Tuesday, the actor turned up with his daughter Suhana, who Saira Banu described as 'tall and beautiful young girl." Admitting that Dilip Kumar was drowsy with the medication, she talked about how SRK hugged him gently and kissed his on his forhead. " I even saw him chanting a dua under his breath and blowing it on saab's face. He was there for saab's 89th birthday too and sat close to us, holding his hand and mine."

 

Not just Shah Rukh Khan's acting style reminds of the Tragedy king, Saira Banu feels that he even looks like Dilip Saab. The legendary actress recalled the first meeting with SRK decades ago, when he had signed his first film, Dil Aashna Hai. " We went for the muhurat of the film too. Dilip saab gave the ceremonial clap. I have always said that if we had a son, he might have looked like Shah Rukh.. Both he and saab are a lot alike and have similar hair, which is why I like to run my fingers through Shah Rukh Khan when we meet. This time he asked me, 'Aaaj aap mere baalon ko haath nahin laga rahi hain?' I was happy to."

Saira Bano is all praises for the other two Khans as well -Aamir and Salman.  She revealed that Aamir is just a call away in case of any emergency or even a request from some member of the the family." He goes out of his way to comply with such requests and is constantly in touch. So is family friend Salim Khan and his son Salman Khan. They often drop by on festivals and occasions like saab's birthday. Shah Rukh Khan has been the the one who was difficult to reach over the past two three years. I pointed that out to him and he admitted that he has been shooting abroad, but promised to connect more often."

Saira Banu ended the conversation with what Dilip Kumar taught her. She said, " Dilip saab taught me that's its important to be accessible to senior actors when they are old and ailing. These youngsters are good boys, God Bless them"
