Dilip Kumar's brothers Ehsan Khan and Aslam Khan recently tested positive for the novel coronavirus. They were admitted to Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai on Saturday night for Covid-19 treatment. It is reported that Dilip Kumar's younger brothers have comorbidity issues. While one of them has blood pressure, the other one is said to be suffering from Parkinson's disease.
More details on the condition of Ehsan Khan and Aslam Khan are still awaited. Dilip Kumar and wife Saira Banu stay at a different house and they are safe.
Ehsan is reportedly 90 years old while Aslam is a few years younger to him. They are being treated by doctor Jalil Parkar in Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital.
Back in April, actor Dilip Kumar took to Twitter to spread a message about the novel coronavirus pandemic. His tweet read, "I urge you to #StayHomeSaveLives during this #COVID19pandemic (sic)." He then went on to pen a poem that read, "Dawa bhi, dua bhi/Auron se faslaa bhi/Ghareeb ki khidmat/Kamzor ki seva bhi (sic)."
