Big B hints at receiving COVID-19 vaccine, says he is in 'queue'

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan on Sunday hinted he will receive the first dose of the coronavirus vaccine as soon as he recovers from his eye surgery. Earlier this month, the 78-year-old actor had opened up about his first eye surgery and said that the recovery is "slow and difficult".

Last week, Bachchan underwent successful surgery for his other eye. Taking to his blog, the screen icon voiced concerns around



rising COVID-19 cases and the box office performance of his upcoming film "Chehre".

"There is now the fear of another strain, getting free box office results and that is unnerving. The vaccination has become mandatory and soon there shall be the conditioning for yours truly to be one such in the queue. Well as soon as the work in progress eyes get settled till then it's a wild world ain't it," Bachchan wrote.
