If he survives the year, he should be at Number 42 on the main list next year.

 

(Has this joke been made before? Will he make it?)

Not sure yet, I can believe this article - it might be clickbait.

No, it's a sort of Indian TMZ. Usually very reliable.

I was kinda wondering the same thing, but it seemed plausible.  I didn't see any jiggling body parts when I clicked on it, so I figured it was probably ok.

No doubt family will deny anyway. That's just their mentality.

His official Twitter account run by family friend denies the rumors too:

Dilip Kumar is 96 today!

 

Sorry, @drol, lol!

I wonder where they get human flesh for the zombie.

 

No pictures shown, but he is "recuperating well", as always. They all wish him a long and healthy life, as he has not had it. 96 is a spring chicken, he could go riding his Jaguar in Malibu, you know, 96 is where youth begins. Dorks.

Can we please start putting the word 'legend(ary)' or 'star' or whatever in quotes to mock the people writing these feel-good titles?  (Note: The title says 'veteran filmmaker' which is balls on accurate, then first word of obit says 'legendary', a leap dontcha think?).  He may be a legend in his household....maybe even the dirt floor village he lives in.  But a 'legendary' film maker he never was.  It's such a joke.  We laugh about these 'legends' all the time in my DP 'oh here's another legend'.  Journalists should be banned from using the word.

A National Film Award is the most prestigious award in all of India, a country with a population of 1.3 billion.
 
That's a pretty big "dirt floor village".

Date of death is unclear for Kader Khan.  Article says Tuesday morning but Wikipedia currently indicating it to be December 31st, 2018.

 

Edit:  Wikipedia now listing it as January 1st, 2019.
