Veteran actor Dilip Kumar still in ICU: Hospital

Mumbai, Aug 7: Legendary actor Dilip Kumar, who is being treated for dehydration and kidney-related ailments, is recovering but is still kept in the ICU for observation.

"He is improving. He is doing fine. His creatinine levels have reduced. He is not on ventilator but is in the ICU.

Due to the age factor, we have to keep him under observation," Lilavati Hospital's vice president Ajaykumar Pandey told PTI. "He will be in the hospital for a few more days," Pandey said.

Kumar was admitted to the hospital in suburban Bandra on Wednesday morning after he suffered from dehydration and urinary tract infection. There have been reports that the 94-year-old actor is suffering from a renal ailment.

The actor is under the care of a team of senior doctors, including Dr Jalil Parkar and Dr Gokhale, at the hospital.
