Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who has spent more than four decades in the movie business, had to face a `strange` moment when he had to shoot at the Seven Hills Hospital, the place where he underwent surgeries and saw the birth of Aaradhya.

`Shooting at the Seven Hills Hospital...venue of my surgery and the birth of Aaradhya... Odd acting out what I had been through real,` the 71-year-old tweeted.

Big B is currently shooting for R. Balakrishnan's, fondly called Balki, film `Shamitabh`. The movie, also starring Dhanush, marks the Bollywood debut of southern superstar actor Kamal Haasan's daughter Akshara.


`...it was strange to be enacting that which I had been through in reality! So the Ot (Operation theatre) and the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) centre as I was in for my surgery, now recreated for a scene and the difference being that this was make belief and that was not,` he posted on his blog srbachchan.tumblr.com.

The megastar was admitted to the Seven Hills Hospital Feb 11 where he underwent two abdominal surgeries. His health condition stems from his near-fatal accident on the sets of "Coolie" in 1982.

Aaradhya, granddaughter of Amitabh, was born at the same hospital Nov 16, 2011.
