Amitabh Bachchan shares his remedy for sleepless nights

On Tuesday at 4:14 am, Amitabh took to his blog and spoke candidly about staying awake through the night due to work. Reflecting on his routine, the actor admitted that work often takes priority over sleep, despite medical advice suggesting otherwise.

He wrote, “No sleep process takes over at this hour of the morning from the night before. Why because, work is more important than sleep... medical says it’s not right... must get 7 hrs minimum... the body grows, develops and repairs in the sleep hours... so what does one do? As I work, I am glued to the Ef Blog but in the silence of the night that gentle music on slide guitar - sitar rendering some of the most soulful classical meditation solos... aaah!! there is no better cure for the soul than this.”

The actor further reflected on the emotional connection he feels with music and how it helps him feel calm during restless nights.

He added, “It is the chord that ties the soul to the Almighty... that invisible thread unseen, yet felt despite its absence... I feel... so it strums the strings within... put it on and softly it shall give you the peace of slumber... the seven notes that have invaded all music in whichever part of the world, are the universal commonness of mankind... respect it and it shall respect you.”
