One Twitter user wrote, "Understand the chronology of the criminals: Dilip Kumar's real name Yusuf Khan earned a lot of money in Bollywood by keeping the Hindu name, but at the time of death, he did not give his property of 98 crores to any NGO running an old age ashram or orphanage but to his religious Muslim Waqf Board!

Understand the chronology of the victims:- Dilip Kumar earned a lot of money in Bollywood by keeping a hindu name while his real name was Yusuf Khan.

But at the time of death, he did not give his property of 98 crores to any NGO running an old age ashram or orphanage but to his religious Muslim Waqf Board!
