Dilip Saheb, a colossus: Big B

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is all praise for Bollywood's golden couple Dilip Kumar and Saira Banu and says that the former is of exceptionally large status.

"...the high as always, the meeting with Dilip Saheb, Dilip Kumar, Yusuf Khan! It is tough to see a frail idol admired by millions and my favourite, struggle to move and to recognise familiar faces. Though he always does and has recognised mine. But as always even in his frail health, the charm and grace never ending," the 69-year-old posted on his blog bigb.bigadda.com.

"Credit really to Sairaji, who has looked after him so well and still does, with great care and devotion. Dilip Saheb - a colossus! Once and forever," he added.

The two actors had worked together in Ramesh Sippy's 1982 film "Shakti".
