Liver Cirrhosis
Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan some years back suffers from liver cirrhosis even though he doesn’t drink alcohol. Amitabh met with the accident during one of the action scenes in the film Coolie. His surgery required a lot of blood. The urgency of its administration propelled several volunteers to come forward. Two hundred people donated blood and 60 bottles of blood were collected and injected into him. But, this caused the problem. It was also an unknown hepatitis in 1982 and there were, perhaps due to the urgency of the matter, no known immediate tests to ascertain its existence before it was administered. So it went into his system, festered and attacked his liver. Owing to this problem, the 67-year-old actor has to get himself monitored on a regular basis.
Breathlessness and Stomach pain
On October 11, 2008 Bachchan suffered breathlessness and stomach pain and went off to Nanavati Hospital in Mumbai for a checkup. The history hit him again. He was taken to the Lilavati Hospital for treatment, where he was immediately admitted. After many days, he had returned and today Amitabh is celebrating 75th birthday like Mukaddar’s Sikandar.
Amithabh is a prime example of someone being pegged back repeatedly in life, personal and professional, and yet he fought back. He is a perfect role model for us all, not only to the ones who want to become movie stars, but also for the rest of us to extrapolate the learnings and wear the same attitude to fight adversities in our own lives.
We wish the actor a very happy birthday!
