Amitabh Bachchan comes out to greet fans!

By Hindustan Times

It's been tradition for Amitabh Bachchan to greet his fans at his doorstep almost every Sunday morning, and this Sunday was no different. Despite doctor's instructions in view of his frail condition following his 12-day hospital stay, the megastar came out to satisfy his fans.

"The Sunday well wishers! Constant and so regular... touched... walked all the way down to greet them," Amitabh posted on Twitter on Sunday night.

"Thank you people of affection. I'VE no other expression but this for gratitude... Walking out for the primary time after hospital... not recommended, but for well wishers, a must," added the actor, who refers to his social networking mates as his "extended family."

Clad in a white kurta-pyjama and a cream shawl, the 69-year-old waved out to his fans. Among them was a man, who imitated Big B's Kaun Banega Crorepati style, to which Amitabh wrote: "...and imitations abound ... not too distant from the actual i should say... ha ha."

The veteran actor returned to his home from hospital on February 23. He was admitted to the Seven Hills Hospital on February 11 and underwent two abdominal surgeries, following which he complained of acute pain and was kept under observation.
