Mangalore Today News Network

Mumbai, March 16, 2024: Hours after reports of Amitabh Bachchan’s hospitalisation made headlines, the superstar attended the Indian Street Premiere League (ISPL) 2024 final match in Mumbai. Several videos of Big B from the event are now going viral on social media. Amitabh was spotted enjoying the final match between Majhi Mumbai vs. Tigers of Kolkata.

In one of the videos, Amitabh was seen standing with his actor-son Abhishek Bachchan in the stands as they cheered for Majhi Mumbai. In another video, he was seen interacting with Sachin Tendulkar.

After the match ended, Amitabh was seen leaving the stadium when somebody from the crown asked him about his health. At first, the actor made a gresture from his hand to indicate his is fine. Following this, Big B responded verbally and said, “Fake news”.

Earlier in the day, reports of Amitabh Bachchan being admitted at Kokilaben Hospital in Mumbai made headlines. Several reports claimed that the 81-year-old Bollywood megastar underwent an angioplasty. However, hospital sources later told News18.com that it was “a routine check-up”.

Meanwhile, Amitabh Bachchan had undergone a surgery for his wrist earlier this year. Taking to his blog in January this year, Amitabh wrote, “The ISPL, as has been promoted and delivered in adverts, is well on its way to fructification and all the owners and the members that are involved, were needed to be in immortalised picture frames. So yes, a photo cum meet shoot .. a very quick in and out between the evening hours .. with our friends and colleagues .. such a joy .. Akshay, one of the owners .. and an explanation to him about the surgery on my hand.” Despite his surgery, Amitabh shot for his upcoming projects.

On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan will soon be seen in Kalki 2898 AD with Prabhas and Deepika Padukone. Besides this, he also has Section 84 and the Hindi remake of The Intern in his pipeline.
