Mumbai: Amitabh Bachchan's fans praying for the superstar's speedy recovery can heave a sigh of relief.
Doctors at the Lilavati Hospital have announced that Bachchan is recovering and there is no cause of worry.

In the early hours of Tuesday morning, actors Sanjay Dutt, Danny Dengzongpa, producer Smita Thackeray, Romesh Sharma, Manoj Desai, Ramesh Sippy, family friends Parmeshwar Godrej, Gauri Kahn and Jayaprada made their way through the crowded hospital lobby to his room.
Also spotted at Lilavati Hospital was Bachchan?s estranged brother Ajitabh. All visitors who saw the actor insisted his health was better.
"Doctors say he's fine. All tests have been conducted. He may even be discharged soon." Filmmaker Mehul Kumar insisted.
"He is perfectly stable. Some test results will come in the evening and once they're in, we'll know when he can be discharged. All our wishes are with him," Film exhibitor Manoj Desai said.
