The veteran actor Shammi Kapoor has been admitted to hospital after a pneumonia, hospital officials said. The 78-year-old actress was admitted to the Breach Candy hospital here last week, sources said. Superstar Amitabh Bachchan today visited the actor.

"When I saw him confined to a bed, has been a concern, but his spirit and his will has been one that requires no words to express his reserved attitude indifferent." "Shammi Kapoor, who sang and danced their way into our hearts from the snow in Kashmir had endless meetings in his apartment in the city. It is sad to see it, but how nice to find your spirit alive, and his humor intact" Bachchan wrote on his blog.
