Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has been admitted to Nanavati Hospital in suburban Mumbai for a regular check-up, according to sources. The actor was admitted to the hospital on Tuesday and is still there, they said. "Mr Bachchan had come for a routine check-up," a hospital source told PTI. Initial reports in Mumbai said Bachchan was hospitalised due to liver issues but there is no clarity on that.

The superstar has been hospitalised since three days, as he was admitted on Tuesday at 2 AM, reports suggested. For those unaware, Amitabh Bachchan, is a "tuberculosis survivor" and a "Hepatitis B survivor". In an interview he said that he is functioning on only 25 per cent of his liver. Reports suggest that he is in a special room which is like an ICU, and Bachchan family has been visiting him.

BigB contracted the Hepatitis B virus during blood transfusion from one of his blood donors in 1982, as he was hospitalised due to near-fatal accident on the 'Coolie' sets, BigB revealed this in an awareness video by UNICEF.

Fans have been sending their prayers for Bachchan's speedy recovery

Despite everything, Amitabh Bachchan has stayed active and connected with his fans on social media. He has also penned his blogs everyday. It looks like Amitabh Bachchan gave a hint when he wrote his blog on Wednesday. He mentioned the 'hours and hours of slumber and recline'. Read full blog here -

And there is hours and hours of slumber and recline and slumber and recline .. interspersed with interjections of nostrilled kiteflied absolutions .. which really is a respectable way of looking at life , matters , opinions , and present conditions  …

.. so in general such situations normally are conducive to the circumstances one finds oneself in , which I must agree and insist are not the best , but given the moment one accepts it and moves on to another day .. or slumbers on to another day ..

.. another day has been initiated .. the internals have been intruded .. and the wait is really for those that manage and professionally run humanoids .. the Gods and Angels under whose guidance and care and dexterity the common survive and exist .. god bless them ..

Despite favoured conditioning , I firmly believe that there shall be a few more days of extended slumber , extended kite flying and extended and limited sips of the ‘elixir of life’ ..

.. so be it ..  but so be it shall limit the festive rituals of the much respected ‘Karvachauth’ .. the day the betters pray keep and execute customs for the longevity and conditions of their better halves .. a simple yet very potent ceremony , admired and lauded by all .. 

Till its completeness then .. namaste ..🙏🏻
