Saira, who has worked in films like Sagina and Gopi with her husband, married Dilip Kumar in 1966. She has been a constant pillar of support for her husband, who is 22 years older than her.

Dilip Kumar, 95, was admitted in a hospital here last week to get treated for recurrent pneumonia. He was discharged on Thursday and has been advised complete rest and isolation for a few days to prevent infection.
