For Bollywood legend and actor Dilip Kumar, it was the same time of the year today but with a difference.

Legendary actor Dilip Kumar, 94, who is being treated at a hospital for kidney problems, is not doing good and may need dialysis, a doctor says.

Bollywood screen legend Dilip Kumar has been acquitted by a Mummbai court in an 18-year-old cheque bounce case.

Sadly, the 10th edition of the World Hindi Conference will be remembered for the protest of some self-proclaimed champions and spokespersons of Hindi. They were unhappy that screen icon Amitabh Bachchan was invited to speak on the last day of the conference, arguing that the film star has no claim to fame in popularising Hindi. This is a travesty of facts.

Dilip Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan were conferred with Padma Vibhushan - India's second highest civilian honour.
