Akshay, who is married to his daughter Twinkle, today visited the 69-year-old actor at his residence Aashirwad where he made Khanna wave from his balcony at the mediapersons waiting outside.

His estranged wife Dimple Kapadia was by Khanna's side.

"He is absolutely fine, healthy and hearty. It was all rumours that he is unwell. On the contrary, he is more than fine. The information that you people have got is absolutely wrong," Akshay told reporters outside Khanna's residence.

Khanna's manager had last night said that the actor is unwell.

Earlier in April, Khanna was admitted to hospital following uneasiness and weakness.

 

The veteran actor, considered Bollywood's first superstar, has acted in over 150 films. Fondly called 'Kaka' by his fans, Khanna ruled the industry in the 1960s and 1970s with films like "Aaradhana", "Anand" and "Bawarchi".
