In a rare outburst on social media, megastar Amitabh Bachchan hit back at an anonymous troll, who wished death upon him from coronavirus.

The 77-year-old actor and his son Abhishek were admitted to Nanavati Hospital on July 11 after both tested positive for Covid-19.

Addressing one “Mr Anonymous”, Bachchan wrote in his blog that the troll was trying to gain attention by verbally attacking a star.

“Either I shall die or either I shall live...If I die, you won’t get to write your diatribe anymore, by weathering your remark on a celebrity name. Pity, for, the reason of your writing to be noticed was, because you took a swipe at Amitabh Bachchan, that shall no longer exist.

“If by God’s grace I live and survive you shall have to be ‘weathering’ the ‘swipe’ storm, not just from me, but on a very conservative level, from 90+ million followers,” he wrote.

The actor said though he has not asked his fans to take any action against the troll, if he survives Covid-19 he will.

Bachchan even wrote a paragraph in Hindi, calling the troll a “blot on society”.
