The actor also shared a fan-edit of his picture to encourage people to follow Covid-19 safety measures. Sharing a photo, which was edited by his fan, Amitabh Bachchan wrote that while he could not really understand the purpose of the edit, he sure knows that the message of the picture is to motivate people to wear masks.

“Iske kuch samajh mein nahin aaya ki kya hai ye , except ki mask pehne rehna zaroori hai .. even though some relaxations in lockdown have been announced .. other wise ye jo blue colour wala Spider-Man ya jo bhi hai , uski tarah latakte rahenge!” he wrote.

Amitabh Bachchan’s post comes after Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray announced on Sunday that permission for film and TV shootings in Mumbai would be granted if the city’s daily coronavirus case count is brought under control. Thackeray said film and TV producers need to follow all Covid-19 safety rules and take precautions during the shoots. “We should ensure that we do not get knocked down by the virus,” he said.

He further informed about his contribution to Covid-19 relief work. “The Oxygen Concentrators ordered from overseas have arrived and almost 50 of them have been distributed out to Hospitals that look after patients free of cost .. some of it shall be going tomorrow to the Care Centre we opened at Rithambara School, which we initiated with a 25 bed facility, and hope to add another 50 beds to it. Almost 150 oxygen concentrators that were designated for the Gurudwaara facility in Delhi , and that I had managed to import from Poland, have already been cleared and are in operation at the facility, and this is most heartening,” he wrote.

He continued, “5 Ventilators , of the 20 other ordered – an equipment that has had great difficulty in procuring – have arrived and we are sending them to some of the prominent Hospitals that do exemplary work in treating the very poor and needy .. each drop counts and all of us are dedicated in doing our best .. though huge amounts of the necessary needs are in position or in manufacturing and shall soon make it feasible for our needs .. private manufacturers are in the midst of producing the required Vaccines in the multiple crores / millions, and all of us are taking personal interest in seeing that our own private facilities as also the Manufacturing facilities in their factories are vaccinating all the employees, to get the numbers adding on each hour.”
