Saira turns 78 on August 23, but the actress didn’t feel the joy she felt when her husband and actress Dilip Kumar was with her on her birthday. After the death of Dilip Kumar, Saira, who was celebrating her birthday alone, became emotional once again remembering her sahab and remembered many stories she lived with him.
thanked those who congratulated

The actress said, ‘I am fortunate that messages from well-wishers of Dilip Kumar have started coming in the last few days. There are many people who are calling me because they don’t want me to be alone or feel lonely.’
I can’t have a happy birthday without sir
Saira said that ‘All my relatives and friends are contacting me to wish me a birthday, but I cannot have a happy birthday without Dilip Sahab. It cannot be the happiness, nor can it be the life I have spent with him.
Dilip sahib used to do best arrangement on his birthday.
Recalling the birthday celebrated with Dilip Kumar, Saira said that on my birthday, Dilip sahib used to make my day special by making the best arrangements. Used to decorate the whole house with flowers. He himself used to go to the market with my niece Shaheen and buy flowers. After this, he would go to my favorite shop in Mumbai and buy beautiful clothes for me from there. Cook my favorite dish. He would do his best to keep me happy. His memories are etched in my heart and mind and I do not think that I will ever be able to forget it. We spent wonderful memorable moments together, which I will spend the rest of my life remembering.
