BOLLYWOOD megastar Amitabh Bachchan has undergone tests after a recurrence of an abdominal complaint that saw him admitted to hospital on his birthday last year, he said yesterday.
The 66-year-old film star wrote on his blog that he returned to Mumbai from Europe on Tuesday (July 7) after developing "a pain in the stomach much like the one I got last birthday".
"I drove straight to my doctor on arrival on Tuesday night and after some external physical examinations was subjected to CT scans yesterday morning," he added.
"The results do not show anything, but the trouble exists, albeit on a much smaller scale than the last time. I do not think that there is a need for alarm, but I do not want to take chances."
Bachchan was taken to a private Mumbai hospital in October with what was thought to be complications from a previous hernia operation and abdominal injury.
The star nearly died from the original injury, which happened on the set of the 1982 film Coolie.
