Amitabh Bachchan has been suffering from liver cirrhosis. The disease destroyed 25% of his liver. Normally, this disease is common among alcoholic people but Amitabh Bachchan is not alcoholic. He contracted this disease in 1982 when he was severely injured from an accident while shooting Coolie. Mr. Bachchan broke the news on his official blog. IndiaGlitz reports:

Cirrhosis impairs the liver’s ability to control infections and process nutrients, hormones and drugs. The sensitivity of the disease requires Bachchan to stay under constant vigil and monitoring.

While shooting for a fight sequence, Amitabh Bachchan’s intestines were severely damaged. He remained ill for several weeks. At that time, Amitabh Bachchan’s fans around India prayed for his cure. He also received 60 bottles of blood from 200 volunteers. He underwent blood transfusion and one of the volunteers carried “Australian antigen hepatitis” which caused new problems. After doing various tests it has been assured that the antigen attacked his liver. Unfortunately, the existence of this antigen was not known at that time. Now, sixty seven year old Amitabh Bachchan has to undergo medical test on a regular basis.

Amitabh Bachchan is the living legend of Bollywood cinema. From a simple clerk working in a shipping company, he went on to become one of the biggest movie stars of the Indian cinema. He acted in numerous movies. Amitabh Bachchan’s son, Abhishek Bachchan and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are also well established actors in Bollywood cinema.

A cold war is going on between Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan and tabloid newspaper. Because of this fact, Amitabh Bachchan has boycotted the most prestigious ceremony Filmfare awards, which was organizing its 55^th ceremony this year. The 66-year-old actor was nominated as the best male actor for his movie “Paa” where he acted along with his son Abhishek Bachchan. It is thought that Amitabh Bachchan may not accept this award. Both Bachchans stayed out from this function. I think you already know that why they boycotted the award ceremony after Mumbai Mirror published news related about Bachchans. They wrote that Abhishek’s wife, former Miss World Aishwarya Rai could not give birth to baby. This year “Paa” won two awards. Its actress Vidya Balan won nominated as the best actress.

They cheat on people to earn their livelihood but then one day they meet this old couple with whom they fall in love with and instead of cheating on them they end up saving them. The story of Gokula is nothing very extraordinary. The strong point of this movie is its narrative. Because of its extraordinary narrative, the movie, despite having very common themes, would not bore you. It has some great comedy sequences and melodramatic sequences.
