Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan tested positive for COVID-19 last month, and have been in Nanavati Hospital since, getting all the necessary treatment. Now, in some good news, Mr Bachchan informed that he had tested negative for the virus and has been discharged from the hospital.

Tweeting about it, Abhishek wrote that his father will be returning home. But, he also added that he will have to remain in the hospital for a little longer as he has a few other conditions in addition to COVID-19. He assured everyone that he will also return home, healthier.

He wrote:

I, Unfortunately due to some comorbidities remain Covid-19 positive and remain in hospital. Again, thank you all for your continued wishes and prayers for my family. Very humbled and indebted. I’ll beat this and come back healthier! Promise.

Here is his tweet:

Soon after Abhishek and his father tested positive for the virus, his wife, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and daughter Aaradhya Bachchan also tested positive. While they were quarantining at home for most part, they were shifted to the hospital for a few days. But they also tested negative and are back home, recuperating.

Yesterday, he shared a super sweet letter from his favourite international Football team, Chesea Football Club, who wished him a speedy recovery. He said that the best thing that can top this gesture would be for them to win the cup that evening!

Here is his post:

Just last week, Abhishek took to his Instagram to share a picture of his late night walk at the hospital along with a hopeful message. Read more about it here.

We are glad Amit Ji is back home and we are sure AB Jr will also be home very soon! Wishing him a speedy recovery.
