Amitabh Bachchan rushed to the hospital due to liver ailment

Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan was rushed to the hospital in Mumbai where he is seeking treatment for his liver since the last three days. 

According to reports the actor felt unwell and as a result of that, was taken to the hospital late Tuesday, at 2AM. 

In the past, Bachchan had contracted the Hepatitis B virus while undergoing treatment for a near fatal accident back in 1982.

His liver only retained 25% of functioning due to cirrhosis. This occurred because one of his donors was accidentally carrying the Hepatitis B virus and it entered his body during the transfusion all those years ago.

Official sources cite that Bachchan's family has been visiting him on a frequent basis and has admitted him to a special room which is equivalent to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

However, most Bollywood celebrities did not end up visiting him since they were not aware of the news.
