In a tweet, Amitabh Bachchan paid tribute to his former co-star, saying, “An institution is gone.. whenever the history of Indian Cinema will be written, it shall always be ‘before Dilip Kumar, and after Dilip Kumar’..” My prayers for his soul’s peace and for the family’s courage to face this loss… I am really saddened.” They have previously worked together on films such as Shakti.

Anupam Kher, too, took to Twitter to pay tribute to the late Dilip Kumar with a video. “The legend endures!! For years to come, there will always be a portion of #DilipKumarSaab in every Indian actor! His performances were eerily similar to magic. Thank you, Sir, for the wonderful times I had with you! You’ve taught me a lot about life, living, and acting!” Kher composed music for his Saudagar co-star.

Anil Kapoor honoured Dilip Kumar for the place he has in the actor’s heart and the relationships the two families enjoyed. “One of our brightest stars has left us for the skies, so our world is a bit less brilliant today. Dilip Sahab was very close to my father, and I had the great privilege of working with him on three of my most memorable films…

For me, he was and always will be the best and most talented actor in our business… He has influenced several generations of artists. Dilip Sahab, may you rest in peace. “You will live on in our minds and hearts forever,” Kapoor wrote his post, which included several photos of him with Kumar.
