Currently, Amitabh and his family are quarantining in Mumbai. The city is bracing for a severe storm – Cyclone Nisarga – the first of its kind in more than a century. In a blog post, the actor wrote about the ‘wait before the storm’.

“Silence .. the wait before the storm .. NISARGA .. nature .. the stillness and the anxiety of what lies ahead .. indications of the winds before the rain and the expected deluge begin to show in short bursts .. the covers shiver .. the personnel in roofed shelter .. the unexpectancy lingers about .. It lounges about near by .. seeking the opportune moment to hit the land mass .. and rip apart the region in devastation .. nature .. nature has given us enough evidence of its presence superiority and standing .. We shall take it as it comes .. one braves the thought .. and the hopes rise until the reality strikes,” he wrote.
