Amitabh Bachchan Health: 'Even Wearing Trousers Is Difficult Now' - Actor Opens Up About Struggles With Daily Tasks
Amitabh Bachchan, the legend of Indian cinema, has recently come up with something shocking about his struggle with even simple tasks. Big B leaves no chance to mesmerize us with his stunning performances to date, and even though he is closer to 85, he still looks flawless at this age, and his fans continue to love seeing him on the big screen. He has also recently launched the 17th edition of KBC, Kaun Banega Crorepati, but he took to Instagram recently, opening up about how his everyday tasks have become challenging for him and might need special attention.
Amitabh Bachchan opened up about how difficult it is becoming to even manage the simplest of tasks, like just putting his trousers on, which could be a sign of old age. He also revealed the installation of handlebars at his house, Jalsa. He expressed his feelings through a blog on Sunday and commented about encountering difficulties in performing daily tasks.
Saying all that, he also acknowledged his fans who gather outside his residence just to catch a sight of him, and their love for him always surprises him. Further adding to it, he said, "As I climb the steps to face them, the reassurance grips my body, and the reactions all come with the provocation of the cheers from all to steady my nerves. Then the love and admiration take over."

He also shared that his ageing is something that is coming in way and is now mostly focused on routines of medications and essentials, including some mobility exercises at the gym to keep up with his health. He basically termed it as "Walk the talk or talk the Walk." Further, he continued by saying, "Some routines that were there earlier seem to suggest that because it was done some years ago, it shall be a cakewalk to initiate them again. Nah, no baby! Just one day's absence and the pains and the mobility go for a very long walk."
Not only this, but doctors have advised Legend to sit down and wear the trousers and to avoid standing while putting them on, and he said that he smiled in disbelief while he was hearing all that and later discovered that they were right about it.
He stressed handlebar installation to take advantage of it and keep his body steady while walking so that it can assist even in simple actions like picking up a blown piece of paper, and he continued, "The seriousness of this problem comes into the picture when something like this happens and when it becomes really tough to perform the tasks, and his performance has slowed down with uncertainty."
He also added a very meaningful message, quoting, "The downturn begins at birth. Sad, but that's the reality of life. Youth races through life's challenges with aplomb. Age suddenly slows down your vehicle and tells you, 'Apply the brakes to avoid the accelerated bump when you drive the vehicle of life'." This reflects the reality of life, and we are all rooting for his good health and longevity so that his fans can continue to connect with him on the big screen.
