Amitabh Bachchan can't heal his knee injury due to lack of sleep: 'I struggle to find the time'

Amitabh Bachchan, the 83-year-old host of Kaun Banega Crorepati 18, has shared his struggle to find time for sleep due to his demanding schedule while filming the show. The actor, who has hosted the popular Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? for most of its 26-year run, wrote about his condition in a recent blog post.

Bachchan noted that "night sleep is the best repair mechanism of the human body" but admitted he struggles to follow this advice. He explained that he tries to go to bed early before an early start for work and experiences a sense of drive and conquering goals when he does so.

The post comes after Bachchan injured his knee while filming the show on September 30. He usually begins each episode by standing at the center of the stage to deliver a monologue, but had to sit down due to his injury. Despite the setback, Bachchan reassured viewers that his knee injury is not serious and continued with the episode as planned, welcoming back contestant Shourjya Das to the hot seat.
