While
talking
about
taking
care
of
husband
Dilip
Kumar,
Saira
Banu
told
ETimes,
she
said,
"It
is
out
of
love
and
not
duress
that
I
look
after
Dilip
saab.
I
am
not
looking
for
praises
to
be
called
a
devoted
wife.
Just
to
touch
him
and
cuddle
him
is
the
world's
best
thing
that's
happening
to
me.
I
adore
him
and
he
is
my
breath
itself."
Recently,
Saira

attack.
According

Gokhale,
the
left

in
her
heart
and
lungs."
A
few
days
later
she
was
discharged
from
the
hospital
and
is
currently

in
