"I am doing fine," Bachchan was quoted as saying by visitors who enquired about his health.

Among those who called on the ailing actor were filmmaker Ravi Chopra and Susan Roshan, wife of actor Hrithik Roshan.

A large number of fans and media persons gathered outside the hospital anxiously waiting to know about the well being of the legendary actor.

Doshi said friends and family were praying for Bachchan's well being. "At this point of time we are focusing attention for his speedy recovery," he said.

Hospital sources said Bachchan was under observation and tests were being carried out. Earlier at Nanavati, stomach and chest X-rays were taken.

Over the years, the Bollywood legend has been coming out of his house especially to greet fans on his birthday.

This year has been an eventful one for the Big B. He had releases like Sarkar Raj, God Tussi Great Ho, Bhootnath and The Last Lear.

Besides, 'The Unforgettable Tour' was his biggest world concert in several years in which he was accompanied by Abhishek and Aishwarya. The tour, spanning over a month, covered the US and Europe.

But, the highlight was that the Big B turned blogger. His blog has been the most visited and is keenly followed by fans.
