Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who is going through a mild body ailment which laid him low, says he is recovering.
The 73-year-old thespian on his official blog shared an update about his health to his well-wishers, who he fondly calls his "extended family" or "Ef".
"I am in recovery .. though with slow process ! Those that present themselves on this family of Ef, throw intermittent concern on my condition. To them I say, I am well and do not have grave conditions in your mind," Big B wrote on Sunday.
The "Piku" star also assured his fans that these "conditions occur often, and shall heal in due course!"
The cine icon shared that with the help of a "strong pain killer" he could travel to Chennai "to pay respect to a late friend's death anniversary".
He added: "The ceremony was quiet, elegant, filled with the softness of remembrance and poignancy...I spoke... it was appreciated."
