Abhishek hilariously said: "We did corona" and added: "He (Ajay) was the first to call me. He said, 'What is this? What is going on? How has this happened to you?'"
Abhishek then laughed and added: "Then I realised that five or six days before that, he'd come to meet me."
Ajay Devgn is also producing Abhishek Bachchan's new film The Big Bull, which will also star Sohum Shah and Nikita Dutta.

Back in July, almost the entire Bachchan family tested positive for COVID-19. Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan were admitted to Mumbai's Nanavati Hospital on July 11. Abhishek Bachchan's wife, actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and their 8-year-old daughter also tested positive for the coronavirus, a day after Big B and Abhishek announced their COVID-19 test results. Amitabh Bachchan's four bungalows in Mumbai, including Jalsa, where the superstar currently lives with his family, were also sealed off by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) at that time.
While Aishwarya returned home after testing negative for COVID-19 on July 27, Amitabh Bachchan tested negative for the coronavirus on July 29. Abhishek Bachchan was discharged from the hospital after a 29-day stay.
