Thatcher 2,490 Posted September 20, 2017 I swear to God they are actually driving Dilip Kumar's corpse around in a car and pretending he's alive. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainChorizo 1,991 Posted September 20, 2017 If he makes Jan 1. Dilip Kumar is the Sophie's Choice for DDP players. Almost certain to die,but likely only 5 points as his being propped up and barely alive isn't that known/he is not big enough name for drop 40. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's only September, so enough forum mentions in the last 3 months could push him to be in the drop 40. It's not like Mario Soares, where we only knew of his illness in the last ten days in the year or so... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,368 Posted September 21, 2017 If he is still breathing on 1st Jan he will be on my main DDP tem.I say that as I fully expect him to die this year .Poor man looks like a corpse. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CastAway 490 Posted September 22, 2017 Interesting that there's been a lack of updates the last couple of days. Shakila, actress in 50s and 60s Bollywood films, dead at 82 of a heart attack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Life Is Beautiful 718 Posted October 2, 2017 New picture of Dilip Kumar, celebrating the New Islamic Year. Looks a lot better. PS: I've heard some wonderful things in this forum in the past but "Dilip Kumar isn't big/famous enough" certainly trumps everything! He's without a doubt bigger than at least half the picks on this year's Deathlist. Umm Sandy Whatshisnameagain anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CastAway 490 Posted October 2, 2017 His arms still look nothing more than bones, though - my guess, either this year or next, unless something significant changes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have heard the Deathlist 50 is about clickbait names, I don't see why a Bollywood Icon wouldn't be good for the list as he would bring a lot of new International users to the forum. If it makes it to Jan 1 he should be on the list 100% . That's a different prospect then is he unknown to many US and UK based posters. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,652 Posted October 2, 2017 I do not think that the Deathlist names are purely clickbait. I mean how many times does Perez de Cueller appear in the Daily Mail sidebar of shame? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Technically no, because they turned acting into the family business, and at least a couple members from each of the next 2 generations are still alive and acting.
