The man wrote Sholay and Deewaar. That's enough said. A living library of Indian cinema. Hoping for positive news from the doctors tomorrow. Our prayers are with the Khan family.

While I'm glad for the positive updates, I do wish the media would give the family more space. Constant speculation and pressure for bulletins must be so hard for them. Health matters are private.

It's good that the doctors are being cautious and keeping him under observation. At his age, one has to be careful. Hope he is back home soon, surrounded by his loving family.
