Big B Prays For Nelson Mandela!

Former South African president, and Bharat Ratna Nelson Mandela, who is critically ill and admitted in a hospital in South Africa got the wishes of good health from another icon. It was none other than our very own Amitabh Bachchan. Nelson Mandela has been an idol for many around the world and when he got ill Amitabh used the social networking site Twitter to pray for the legend.

He said, "Nelson Mandela lies in hospital in critical condition ! Wishing 'Madiba' the best of care and prayer to keep him well !! Met on two occasions in SAf, and each time the power of his presence and gentleness, overwhelmed me .. 'Madiba' our prayers with you."

                                                                                                                                             Remembering the time he spent in the African country he added, "It was 'Madiba' and his ANC that gave us the first permission to stage a concert in Durban, JoBerg, on eve of end of Apartheid !! Can never ever forget those moments of our first visit to SAF .. and the concert, and the love of the people .. never before !!"

We too wish for good health and a speedy recovery for Nelson Mandela!
