Big B visits Shammi Kapoor ...

Actor Shammi Kapoor, now 78 years of age, was recently hospitalized with a chest infection, leading him to occupy stay at the Breach Candy Hospital. One of several visits made by fans included Big B himeself, who went in on Sunday to meet Kapoor.


Expressing his feelings on his blog, Big B wrote writes, "Seeing him confined to a bed has been disturbing, but his spirit and his will has been one that requires no words to express his nonchalant reserved demeanour. Shammi Kapoor, who sang and danced his way into our hearts from the snows of Kashmir to the endless soirees he held at his apartment in town. Sad to see him like this, but how wonderful to find his spirits alive and his humour intact."


The visit filled Bachan with nostalgia, as he continued, "Entering Breach Candy is always full of the (memories of) many difficult episodes we as a family went through. My illness in 1982 and 1983 and 1984 and the many visits of my father and my mother and the very special manner in which they took care of all of us."
