Amitabh's condition steadily improving
Mumbai, PTI: December 3, 2005

The condition of megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who underwent a surgery for an intestinal problem, is steadily improving but it would take at least a week before he can be discharged from hospital.

"There has been a steady improvement in his condition and he continues to remain stable," sources at Lilavati Hospital here said today.

It would be around a week before Amitabh was discharged, they said adding he was talking to family members and visitors.

He was on intravenous fluids, supplemented with antibiotics and vitamins, the sources said.

After a successful operation performed for perforated diverticulitis of the small intestine on the 63-year-old actor on November 30, his physical parameters continue to remain normal, suggesting that the "healing process of the wound caused by perforation is also taking up smoothly," they said.

The hospital, meanwhile, continued to witness a steady stream of well-wishers and Bollywood stars.

A large number of fans has gathered outside the hospital gates.
