“Some routines that were there earlier , seem to suggest that because it was done some years ago, it shall be a cake walk to initiate them again. NAH .. no baby. Just one days absence and the pains and the mobility goes for a very long walk ..it is a wonder that the normal actions, earlier, now require the mind to think before they can be exercised…simple acts .. putting on the trousers ..the Doctors advise please Mr Bachchan, sit down and wear them .. do not try to stand while you put them on , you could lose balance and fall,” he added.
“And inside I sort of smile in disbelief .. until I find they were so right .. that simple act that came so naturally earlier is now governed by a selective routine ..Handle bars ..Oh boy .. !!!! you need them all over to hold and steady thy body before any physical act .. just the simplest of them being bending down to pick up that piece of paper that had flown off your desk with the breeze ..Seriously ..The bravado tells you to go ahead .. until you realise .. goodness , its a major problem .. the rapidity of its performing has slowed down with uncertainty ..,” the legend further shared.
“But let me tell you IT SHALL HAPPEN .. TO ALL OF US ..I wish it does not .. but in time it shall ..We all go downward the day we are brought into this World .. the down trend begins at birth …Sad .. but it is the reality of living and life …Youth races through life’s challenges with aplomb ..Age .. suddenly speed brakes your vehicle and tells you, apply the brakes to avoid the accelerated bump when you drive the vehicle of LIFE,” he said.
