Meanwhile, Bachchan has shared a message on religious harmony. The veteran actor, who is undergoing Covid treatment in a hospital here, took to his Twitter account on Thursday to post the message.

He shared two of his pics, one with folded hands and the other where he stretches his palms in prayer. "Mazhab toh yeh do hatheliyaan batati hain, jude to 'puja' khule toh 'dua' kehlaati hain (The two hands describe religion. Whenever they are folded it is called puja and when they are stretched it is called dua)," he tweeted.

Big B, his son Abhishek Bachchan, daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and granddaughter Aaradhya are currently hospitalised with COVI-19 infection.
