Amitabh Bachchan reveals quitting Smoking and Drinking in one go! here's how the actor did it

Following his injury, Amitabh Bachchan has resumed his Sunday custom of posing for photos with fans in front of his Jalsa residence in Mumbai. The actor also discussed his resolve to quit smoking and drinking together in a previous blog post. He discussed his personal decision to permanently kick both habits out of his life in his essay. The actor admitted that he had been abstaining from both "for years and years now."

Recalling about his college days on his blog, Amitabh wrote on Sunday: "Practicals bring back memories of school, where the word or the expression was invariably referred to the practicals in the science labs... mixing elements, playing around with gadgetry in the physics lab… the college routine in continuation and the site one fine day when the last paper for the Graduate degree was over to find some of the classmates celebrating with the pure alcohol, kept in the lab, for experiments and getting extremely sick... an act that taught a lesson very early towards the effects or rather the dis effects of the elixir..."

The veteran actor then moved on to his youth, when he participated in social drinking. He then said, "Yes there were a few other instances noticed, in school and in college, when this intoxicant played havoc due to its excess... and then when in job in the City of Joy (Kolkata), the natural curriculum seemed to be in line with that phrase ‘social drinking’... I shall not deny the consumption of it, but its reason or resolve in leaving for years and years now, I shall not deliberate... it is a personal choice and demeanour... yes I do not... but why the announce of it .." 

Speaking about his decision to go cold turkey with both habits, Amitabh shared it was the best way to be rid of them. He added, "As is the case with the cigarette... in abundance in the years of free, and the sudden and immediate resolve to leave it.. and the way to leave is really quite simple... chuck that glass of the intoxicant, while in the middle of it and crush the ‘ciggi (cigarette)’ on your lips at the same time and... sayonara (goodbye in Japanese)... the very best way to be in riddance… not some part time exigencies to stop the use... its the removal of the cancer at once... done at the rush of a stroke... the more the dwindling, the greater the undesired habit of remaining .."
