Hindustan Times  

Naseeruddin Shah stood by what he wrote about the late Dilip Kumar, whom he accused of not doing enough for cinema in India. Naseer in an op-ed published after Dilip Kumar's death wondered why the late actor ‘chose to play safe the way he did’, despite being a star and ‘immaculate’ at his craft.

I have never denied that it was my childhood dream to act with and not opposite him.” Dilip Kumar died on July 7 after a prolonged illness.
