Megastar Amitabh Bachchan was discharged from Nanavati Hospital after being admitted for some routine check-up, hospital sources said.

Bachchan had gone for a routine check-up at the hospital on Tuesday and remained there for the next two days. At around 10 pm, Bachchan left the hospital with his wife Jaya Bachchan and son Abhishek, sources said.  Reports of Bachchan, who turned 77 on October 11, suffering a liver problem were doing the rounds, but sources claimed there was no truth to it.

"He came to the hospital for routine check-up. He is doing fine. He is hale and hearty," sources had said earlier.

Not just that. Amitabh also requested everyone to respect his privacy. An excerpt from his blog further read, "Do NOT break the CODE of professional documentation .. ailments and medical conditions are a confidential individual right .. its exploitation, and its attempted commerce are a social illegality .. respect and give required understanding to this .. all is not in the world of sale." He ended the note by saying, "My love .. and my gratitude for all .. for all that consider care , that consider concern and consider prayer for me." (sic)
