 After
18 days of stoic silence, Amitabh Bachchan has at
last sent word on his condition. A late-night SMS
from the star, in reply to a message from a
reporter, read, “I am feeling better. Will stay at
the hospital for a few more days.”
Up to then, there was much speculation that Bachchan
would leave Lilavati some time during the night.
Journalists and fans continued their vigil outside
Lilavati Hospital, apprehending his discharge. “Ab
niklega... pakki khabar hai,” said one journalist.
Even the passersby took the time to peek inside the
hospital compound, hoping to catch a glimpse of
Bachchan leaving. Said a fourth standard student, “I
came to see if Bachchan uncle would finally come
out. I come here every day to check on uncle.”
But then came the SMS, and the animated crowd
uttered a collective groan.
Meanwhile, hospital sources said Bahchan was
perfectly fine, and could leave any time he wanted.
Celebrities who visited him yesterday included
Sachin Tendulkar, Saif Ali Khan and girlfriend Hubby
Roza, and actress Shefali Chhaya. |
