Fans praying for speedy recovery of 'Big B'
Mumbai /Varanasi, Oct 12 : Fans and well-wishers of Bollywood superstar Amitabh
Bachchan thronged the Lilavati Hospital here last night after the actor was admitted there
due to stomach pain.
Abhishek said doctors have diagnosed the condition and he was suffering from an
intestinal obstruction.
"He has an intestinal obstruction. He is responding well to the medication. The doctors
have requested for 48 to 72 hours of observation. So, we will keep him in hospital for 48
to 72 hours," Abhishek said.
Meanwhile, fans in Varanasi organised fire rituals to pray for the speedy recovery of
him.
"We organised a fire ritual for long life of our beloved actor. We want him to get well
soon and live many more years," said Anand Mishra, a fan.
Amitabh was taken to the Nanavati Hospital on Saturday afternoon on his 66th birthday.
Later, he was referred to Lilavati Hospital.
In November 2005, Amitabh was operated on at Leelavati Hospital after he developed
intestinal problems.
