MIL/BBC/Agencies, Mar 20, 2006.
Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan has returned to work after a four-months of his surgery. He was operated on at a Mumbai hospital last November for diverticular disease, caused by inflammation of the colon.
The star began shooting on a film 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna' (Never Say Goodbye) at a Mumbai studio on Monday. He, who has starred in over 100 films, has shown no sign of slowing down as he has got older.
Amitabh , the hero of more than 100 films was once dubbed the "most famous actor of the millennium" by a BBC News website readers' poll. He will start filming three movies this week, after 12 productions worth over $20m were delayed after he took ill last year, say reports.
