Veteran actor Dilip Kumar is well known for his contribution to the film industry. He has worked in films like Naya Daur, Ram Aur Shyam and Azaad among others. Dilip, who has earlier received many awards for his art of work, on Tuesday, felicitated with a Living Legend Lifetime Award from the Punjab Association. As Dilip Kumar is not well, the officials chose to visit him at his residence in Mumbai to hand over the award. After receiving such an honour, an elated Dilip took to his twitter and expressed his happiness.
Sharing his excitement, he wrote: “Mr. Ranbir Singh Chandok and Mr. Anand of the Punjab Association visited me today. God is kind. Humbled at receiving the Living Legend Lifetime Award from Punjab Association this afternoon,”.
