"Friends, be positive, think positive. Life will be positive. I'm silent, but not ill. Rumours keep cropping up," the 86-year-old said in the video.

Citing the lyrics of the song "Bura Mat Suno" from his 1969 film "Aya Sawan Jhoom Ke", Dharmendra  urged his fans to take care. "Love each other, be good to each other. Life will be beautiful," he further said.
