Amitabh Bachchan, a Bollywood legend known for regularly sharing his opinions with followers on his personal blog, recently spoke up about the realities of aging. In his most recent article, the 82-year-old great pondered on how ordinary things that used to come naturally now require intentional effort, even admitting to the need for 'handlebars' around the home.

On August 17, following his regular Sunday meet-and-greet with fans, Bachchan wrote about how medication and health regimens now govern his daily schedule as much as employment. "The body gradually begins to lose its balance, and there is a need to work on it to check and improve," he remarked, emphasising the need for yoga, breathing exercises, and mobility training.

Talks about how simple tasks turn difficult

Amitabh Bachchan went on to share how simple tasks for him are getting difficult to handle, "Some routines that were there earlier, seem to suggest that because it was done some years ago, it shall be a cake walk to initiate them again. NAH .. no baby. Just one days absence and the pains and the mobility goes for a very long walk ..it is a wonder that the normal actions, earlier, now require the mind to think before they can be exercised...simple acts .. putting on the trousers ..the Doctors advise please Mr Bachchan, sit down and wear them .. do not try to stand while you put them on, you could lose balance and fall."
