Amitabh Bachchan began his Saturday morning by sharing a video that "brightened up" his day in the hospital "like never before." The actor, who is currently being treated for COVID-19 in Mumbai's Nanavati Hospital, along with his son Abhishek Bachchan and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan (both coronavirus-positive), has been actively sharing posts on social media. Big B, on his Twitter profile, shared a video of an artist performing Ed Sheeran's Shape Of You and he stated that the video was sent to him by his "music partner"(he didn't reveal the name). "My music partner and dear friend sent me this... I do not know who this is but I can just say 'You are a very special talent.' God bless you... Keep up the good work. You have brightened my day in the hospital like never before. Mixing Karnatak and Western pop... Amazing," tweeted Amitabh Bachchan.
