He is alright: Saira Banu as she denies reports of Dilip Kumar's failing health

Mumbai: Saira Banu rubbished reports Friday of Dilip Kumar's deteriorating health and said he is doing fine. There were reports that claimed that the veteran actor's health is failing and he is unable to recognise even his wife. "He is alright. He has come back from hospital and is recuperating at home as he had two bouts of pneumonia. He is with his doctor and nursing staff. He is getting better by god's grace," Banu told PTI. When asked whether he is unable to recognise her and people around him, Banu said, "Who says that? I would not give that any cognizant at all. All is well, all is fine and nothing of this sort."

a report in @DeccanChronicle regarding @TheDilipKumar's health is blatant mischief and uncalled for. Infact Saab's health is much better and he is recovering. Pls keep him in your prayers.
