    MUMBAI: A book chronicling the life and times of living legend Dilip Kumar will be launched on the veteran actor’s birthday on 11 December this year. Written as a coffee-table book by film journalist Udaya Tara Nayar, the book has been supervised by the actor’s wife, Saira Banu.

    The biography, which features rare photographs of the 90-year-old actor’s family and friends, traces his journey that started eight decades ago when he came to Mumbai.

    It is being said that many writers who wanted to write Dilip sahab’s autobiography had approached him to grant them the rights. “We chose Udaya Tara because she is like a family member and Sahab has known her for a long time,” observed Saira Banu.

    The book will be published jointly by Saira’s entertainment enterprise Sharp Focus and New Media Publishing House.
