Respect to SRK for visiting. Despite all the media-created rivalry stories with Salman, he shows what true humanity is. Hope Salim uncle gets well soon.

The media needs to give the family some privacy. I understand public interest, but constant camera flashes outside a hospital is not right. Focus on his legendary work instead.

It's reassuring to hear the doctors say the haemorrhage was minimal and no surgery was needed. At 90, he's a fighter. Sending prayers from here.

Salim-Javed gave us some of the greatest dialogues and stories in Indian cinema. The man is a legend. His health is more important than any movie news. Get well soon, sir.
