Big B down with cold and cough

MUMBAI: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is down with cold and cough and had to pay a visit to the doctor after a painful night. "An awful night, coughing my lungs and stomach away...stomach which has surgical left overs and still in process of repair... pains with each expulsion... "A quick visit to the doctor on arrival and the antibiotics and the syrups and the inhalation and the home remedies, a million of them, for, each individual has their own perfect formula of recovering from this," the 69-year-old actor posted on his blog. Post his abdominal surgery in February, Bachchan visits the hospital for regular check-ups. "It’s really quite amusing at times, but they all work - allopathic, ayurvedic, homeopathic, privateopathic, generalopathic... Pathic from the person that you meet on the flight, your driver, your security, the departments at home, and the staff... Visitors, guests... They all have remedies that 'will work miracles'... Or so they say... Never seems to work on this ol' man!!," he added.
