It is not an unknown fact that Bollywood’s Shahenshah, Amitabh Bachchan exactly 37 years ago met with a near-fatal accident. For the unversed, the actor was shooting for his hit film, Coolie.
While shooting for the film, Big B was grievously injured on the sets when actor Puneet Issar had miscalculated the jump and the star had hit the corner of a table and thereby led to serious internal injuries and was flown from Bangalore to Mumbai immediately.
The actor then underwent multiple surgeries. His family, friends and millions of fans had prayed for the actor’s speedy recovery and finally on the 2nd of August, the actor gained his consciousness. Remembering this big day, both Amitabh and his son, Abhishek Bachchan had penned an emotional post.
Amitabh wrote, “Many are they that remember this day with love and respect and with prayer. I can only say I am blessed to have such gracious thoughts with me.. it is this love that carries me on each day .. it is a debt that I shall never be able to repay”
Abhishek has shared that on 2nd August every year, the day is celebrated as his father’s second birthday as he was miraculously revived by the doctors on this day. Check out the emotional posts here -
