The 94-year-old superstar, who has been suffering from age-related problems in recent years, was accompanied by his wife Saira Banu yesterday.
Earlier in the day, Dilip Kumar's wife Saira Banu told PTI, "He is doing much better than yesterday. But he will be in hospital today. The doctors here are taking good care of him."
Dr Jalil Parkar, who is attending the veteran actor, said, "Dilip Kumar has been afflicted with anuria and needed hospitalisation. He is under observation."
In April last year, he was hospitalised due to fever and nausea.
The legendary actor, whose real name is Mohammad Yusuf Khan, acted in many superhit films during his six-decade long career such as 'Madhumati', 'Devdas', 'Mughal-e-Azam', 'Ganga Jamuna', 'Ram Aur Shyam' and 'Karma'.
Dilip Kumar was last seen in the film 'Qila' in 1998. He was honoured with the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 1994 and Padma Vibhushan in 2015.
