Amitabh Bachchan reacts to trolls wishing him 'die of COVID-19'

As veteran actor Amitab Bachchan is battling with the deadly COVID-19, trolls on internet wished him poor health and wrote 'I hope you die'. Responding to it, Big B gave a befitting reply saying 'thok do saalon ko'.

Mumbai: Amitabh Bachchan has reacted sharply to trolls, in an open letter he wrote from the COVID-19 ward in a Mumbai hospital.

He penned the note to anonymous trolls who have been wishing his death due to the novel coronavirus. "They write to tell me... 'I hope you die with this COVID'."

"Hey, Mr Anonymous... you do not even write your Father's name... because you do not know who Fathered you... there are only two things that can happen... either I shall die or either I shall live. If I die you won't get to write your diatribe anymore, by weathering your remark on a celebrity name... pity," he wrote.

"The reason for your writing to be noticed was, because you took a swipe at Amitabh Bachchan... that shall no longer exist...!! If by God's grace I live and survive you shall have to be 'weathering' the 'swipe' storm, not just from me, but on a very conservative level, from 90+ million followers," added the legendary actor.

"I have yet to tell them to... but if I survive I shall... and let me tell you they are a force incensed... they traverse the entire World... from the West to the East from the North to the South ... and they are not just the Ef of this page... that extended family shall in the flash of an eye become 'extermination family'!! All I shall say to them is... 'thok do saalon ko'," he continued.

After his granddaughter Aaradhya Bachchan and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan were discharged from the hospital, after testing negative for COVID-19, Big B had penned an emotional note.

In his blog, the Piku actor mentioned how Aaradhya asked him not to cry and told him that he too will be discharged soon. "...They go home the little one and Bahurani... and the tears flow out... the little one embraces and tells me not to cry... 'you'll be home soon' she assures... I must believe her..." he wrote.
