Big B unwell, advised bed rest

Mumbai, October 17: Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan is unwell and has been advised bed rest following severe cold and shoulder pain, according to his latest blog post.

“A beastly cold sets upon me and a chest condition that threatens to develop into a disturbing congestion drains all my energy. This is a terrible condition to be in. I need to avoid any kind of deep infection because it sets off various alarms in my rather frail system¿There’s also a matter with my shoulder that convulses with sporadic spasms inadvertently. Sitting and lying down brings it on severely,” he wrote in his blog.

The actor informed his extended family (his readers) that he was under treatment to control cold and chest congestion and undergoing physiotherapy to ease shoulder pain.
