Amitabh Bachchan has tested positive for the coronavirus for the second time. The megastar took to his Twitter handle to update about the same. He wrote, “T 4388 – I have just tested CoViD + positive .. all those that have been in my vicinity and around me, please get yourself checked and tested also.
Mr Bachchan was currently shooting for the new season of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ and looking forward to the release of his latest film ‘Brahmastra’ alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.
Back in 2020, when Big B tested COVID positive, he was hospitalised and a spokesperson from the hospital had confirmed that he had to undergo extensive tests. Back in July 2020, right after the 79-year-old actor had tested positive for COVID-19, his son Abhishek Bachchan, too had contacted the virus.
Back then, Abhishek had shared the news on Twitter with a statement that read, “Earlier today both my father and I tested positive for COVID 19. Both of us having mild symptoms have been admitted to hospital. We have informed all the required authorities and our family and staff are all being tested. I request all to stay calm and not panic. Thank you”.
He was also recently shooting for Sooraj Barjatya’s ‘Uunchai’, Vikas Bahl’s ‘Goodbye’ and would go on to shoot for ‘The Intern’ remake with Deepika Padukone.
