After his recent hospitalisation, Amitabh Bachchan has shed five kilos. Big B wrote on his blog, "They tell me there is a loss of weight since the last few days. True. It's almost five kgs, which is just so fantastic for me. A lightness in the step, a controlled and sparse diet and the hours of rest developed to the optimum. Many among the extended family would be delighted with the news (sic)." Meanwhile, Bachchan has resumed shooting for Kaun Banega Crorepati at Film City.

Amitabh Bachchan, who was discharged from hospital on Friday night, also took to his blog to express displeasure about the media's rampantly speculative reporting over his ailment these past few days. He said that medical conditions were the confidential right of an individual, and hence should not be commercialised.
