Amitabh
Bachchan
recently
revisited
the
'Coolie'
incident
which
almost
took
his
life,
as
he
reached
a
milestone
on
social
media.
A
fan
had
wished
the
superstar
for
crossing
45
million
mark
on
his
Twitter
page
by
posting
a
throwback
picture,
which
dated
back
to
Big
B's
return
from
the
hospital
post
his
Coolie
accident.
The
memory
made
Sr
Bachchan
nostalgic,
who
shared
the
throwback
photo
on
social
media
and
wrote,
"The
caption
informs
of
45
million
on
Twitter
..
thank
you
Jasmine,
but
the
picture
says
a
lot
more
..
Its
the
moment
I
came
home
surviving
death
after
the
'Coolie'
accident
..
Its
the
first
time
ever
I
saw
my
Father
breaking
down
!
A
concerned
little
Abhishek
looks
on!"
In
the
picture,
we
see
Amitabh
bending
down
to
touch
his
father's
feet,
who
can
be
seen
crying.
Meanwhile,
a
young
Abhishek
Bachchan
who
is
standing
next
to
his
grandfather,
looks
disturbed.
Earlier,
in
an
interview,
Big
B
had
opened
up
about
the
accident
and
said,
"When
I
was
in
the
ICU,
it
would
take
me
the
whole
night
to
walk
a
small
distance.
I
would
try
and
walk
after
the
nurses
were
asleep.
It
would
take
me
half
an
hour
to
cover
a
distance
of
just
one
inch.
But
I
was
determined,
telling
myself
that
I
have
to
reach
that
point
tonight."
For
those
who
don't
know,
on
July
26,
1982,
Amitabh
Bachchan
had
severely
injured
himself
on
the
sets
of
Coolie
while
filming
a
fight
scene
with
co-star
Puneet
Issar.
He
was
immediately
shifted
to
a
Mumbai
hospital
where
he
went
into
a
coma-like
situation.
The
actor
by
his
own
admission,
was
even
declared
'clinically
dead'
for
a
few
minutes.
However,
after
multiple
surgeries
and
by
the
grace
of
his
fans'
prayers,
the
actor
finally
moved
a
muscle
on
August
2,
1982.
