Dilip Kumar, born Muhammed Yusuf Khan, grew up in a haveli in the heart of Peshawar city.
Legendary actor Dilip Kumar, who died this morning in Mumbai, had often reminisced about his ancestral house in Peshawar (located in present-day Pakistan), where he was born before the partition. Dilip Kumar, born Muhammed Yusuf Khan, grew up in a haveli in the heart of Peshawar city. Located in the fabled Qissa Khwani Bazar, this is the house where Dilip Kumar spent his early childhood before he achieved stardom in the city of dreams. Incidentally, Dilip Kumar's haveli neighboured the ancestral home of another legend of Hindi cinema - his lifelong friend and contemporary, Raj Kapoor. The two grew up in neighbouring havelis that were taken under the possession of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Directorate of Archaeology and Museums last month and will now be converted into museums. Thank you for sharing this. Requesting all in #Peshawar to share photos of my ancestral house (if you've clicked the pic) and tag #DilipKumarhttps://t.co/bB4Xp4IrUB In 2014, Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor's ancestral homes had been declared national heritage sites by the then Nawaz Sharif government. They hit the headlines in September last year after the provincial government announced that it would acquire both properties and turn them into museums after restoration. At that time, Dilip Kumar had received a glimpse of his ancestral house thanks to a journalist in Pakistan. Journalist Shiraz Hassan had posted four photographs of Dilip Kumar's ancestral house, which is over a 100 years old, on Twitter. The actor thanked him for sharing the pictures and requested other Peshawar residents to share pictures of his ancestral home.
