Earlier in the day, the 85-year-old actor visited Dilip Kumar's residence to pay his last respect to the deceased and offer condolences to his family.

Dharmendra was seen folding his hands in a namaste to the paparazzi clicking his pictures as he left.

After Dharmendra left from late Dilip Kumar's residence, he took to Twitter to share a photo wherein he can be seen touching his brother, the late Dilip Kumar, for one last time while paying his respects and alongside the picture, he wrote a heartbreaking note, revealing what bereaved Saira Banu told him while he was sitting next to the mortal remains of the 'Tragedy King'. 

Dharmendra wrote on Twitter, "Saira ne jab kaha. "Dharam, dekho Sahab ne paplak jhapki hai" Dosto, jaan nikal gai meri. Maalik mere pyaare bhai ko jannat naseeb kare."

In a separate tweet he wrote, "Dosto, mujhe dikhwa nahin aata lekin main apne jazbaat par qaaboo bhi nahin paata. Apne samajh ke kah jaata hoon...(Friends, I do not know how to pretend. I also can't control my emotions. Therefore, I speak with my heart and consider everyone my own)."
