The condition of Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan and his actor-son Abhishek Bachchan, who were admitted to Nanavati Super Specialty Hospital at Vile Parle in north-west Mumbai on Saturday night after they tested positive for Covid-19, is “better” and “stable”

Quoting the doctors attending on the father-son duo, informed sources at the hospital said that the two actors did not need any “aggressive treatment” for now. “Both Amitabh and Abhishek are better and clinically stable. They do not need any aggressive treatment,” the sources said.

“Get well soon” message continued to flood various social media platforms from the Bachchan fans and well-wishers for the third consecutive day on Monday.

Earlier in the day, an overwhelmed Amitabh tweeted: “It shall not be possible for me to acknowledge and respond to all the prayers and wishes expressed by them that have shown concern towards Abhishek, Aishwarya, Aaradhya and me .. I put my hands together and say ..Thank you for your eternal love and affection.”

Later in the evening, Big B put out one more tweet, this time in Hindi, thanking his fans and well-wishers for their messages wishing him, his son Abhishek, daughter-in-law Aishwarya and granddaughter Aaradhya.

While Amitabh and Abhishek were admitted to the Nanavati Hospital on Saturday, Aishwarya and Aaradhya,  who tested positive for coronavirus on Sunday, are under quarantine at their home.

Confirming that his wife and daughter had tested positive for Covid-19, Abhishek had tweeted on Sunday evening: “Aishwarya and Aaradhya have also tested Covid-19 positive. They will be self quarantining at home. The BMC has been updated of their situation and are doing the needful. The rest of the family, including my mother, have tested negative. Thank you all for your wishes and prayers”.

“My father and I remain in hospital till the doctors decide otherwise. Everyone please remain cautious and safe. Please follow all rules!,” Abhishek had said in another tweet.
