Keep on inspiring, keep on getting healthy and hearty -- that was the emotion that surfaced on the digital platform on the 93rd birthday of Dilip Kumar on Friday. Members of the film fraternity like Lata Mangeshkar, Rishi Kapoor, Javed Akhtar and Subhash Ghai took to Twitter to wish the legendary actor many happy returns of the day.

Dilip Kumar, whose real name is Yusuf Khan, became a name to reckon with in the 1950s and 1960s, thanks to his performances in "Aan", "Daag", "Devdas", "Madhumati","Paigham", "Mughal E Azam", "Ganga Jamuna", "Leader" and "Ram Aur Shyam".

After working for about six decades, he stepped out of the arclights in 1998. His last movie was "Qila".
