President Pratibha Patil wished speedy recovery to Veteran Bollywood superstar Dilip Kumar, who has been admitted in the ICU of Indraprasth Apollo Hospital late Thursday night after his situation turned serious due to urinary tract infection. 

The group of doctors attended him reported that his condition is now stable, and soon he would be shifted out of ICU. 

The President also sent a flower bouquet through her assistant to Dilip Kumar, and later talked to Kumar at hospital and wished him speedy recovery.
 
“We want you to get well soon,” a Rashtrapati Bhavan spokesperson quoted Mrs. Pratibha as telling the actor. 

Another Bollywood actor, Shashi Kapoor, 70, was also admitted to Indraprastha Apollo Hospital for a ‘routine' check-up’. 

Kapoor, who has a heart problem, is expected to be discharged on Saturday.
