"He's greater than fine. He's absolutely fine. Thanks in your concern," Rajesh Khanna's son-in-law, actor Akshay Kumar told reporters outside Khanna's bungalow Ashirwad in Bandra here.
Akshay's comment came after the 69-year-old veteran's manager Ashwin told Wednesday that the actor had stopped food intake for the "last three or four days".
Worried fans lined up outside his house, and India's first superstar Rajesh Khanna happily obliged by waving to them and showing them the 'V' for victory sign from the balcony of his house. He was wearing a crisp white kurta, a stole and dark shades.
With a heavily bearded look, he appeared weak, but gave the impression to be in high spirits as he sported the similar smile which in his heydays made millions of his female fans' hearts skip a beat.
He was accompanied by his estranged wife Dimple Kapadia, who takes regular care of him nowadays, in addition to Akshay, who's married to his elder daughter Twinkle.
While Twinkle is expecting her second baby, her younger sister Rinke has flown right down to Mumbai to be together with her ailing father.
The actor began his career with "Aakhri Khat" in 1966. He became a well-liked name along with his work in films like "Raaz", "Do Raaste" and "Aradhana" and was crowned "superstar" after he delivered 15 consecutive solo super hits.
In April, he was admitted to a hospital because of a short lived health scare.
He recently featured in a TV commercial for Havell's fan.
