The actor suffered from prostate cancer and breathed his last on 7<sup>th<\/sup> July 2021 at Hinduja Hospital, Mumbai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With many versatile productions and various recognitions in his name, Dilip Ji is a perfect exemplar of a \u2018flexible yet firm\u2019 working approach. He always carried his signature style and yet was bendable enough to cope with diverse roles. A simple actor who had a significant impact on his audience! Having watched several of his movies, I recently viewed one <em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/in\/title\/60002088\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">newly added on Netflix<\/a><\/span><\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only professionally, but he had seen ups and downs in his personal life as well.

It takes character to withstand such adversities with grace. While his life might not be perfect, we still have a lot of things worth imbibing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s all pray for him to rest in peace and solace for his family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before ending, a little thought that touched my mind \u2013 we often remember people only when they are no more with us. However, overlook them when they are alive and very much with us. Not sure how successfully I\u2019ll be able to do; but going forward, we\u2019ll plan to share part of our space to discuss people #makingadifference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you know anyone you\u2019d like the blog to write about, please mention in the comments section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avani Raj Arora<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The recent passing away of celebrated Bollywood actor Dilip Kumar brought to memories his wonderful creations in the form of his films.
