"Doctors have advised complete rest, isolation for few days to prevent infection. Thank you all for your prayers," Farooqui wrote.
"He (Dilip Kumar) is stable now. There is nothing to worry about," Ajay Kumar, Vice President, Lilavati Hospital, had earlier told PTI.
When reached out, Kumar's wife, yesteryear actor Saira Banu was unavailable for comment.
