JODHPUR: Actor Amitabh Bachchan took ill early Tuesday after wrapping up an all-night shoot at the Mehrangarh Fort here. Bachchan has been shooting in Jodhpur for the past one week for ‘Thugs of Hindostan’.
On Tuesday, Bachchan tweeted, “4:51 am…and just back from work..! bina mehnat ke kuchh nahi milta (Nothing is achieved without hard work)…” Soon after, in a comment on his official blog, Bachchan wrote, “I am getting my team of doctors in tomorrow morning to fiddle around with my body and set me up again…”
By afternoon, a team of doctors from Mumbai had arrived in Jodhpur on a chartered flight to attend to the 75-year-old megastar in his room at Ajeet Bhawan Palace.
Referring to the doctors’ observations, sources said Bachchan had pain in the back and shoulder due to exhaustion and would be able to resume work soon after some rest.
