Veteran actor Dharmendra on Sunday wished a speedy recovery to his frequent co-star, megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who along with son, actor Abhishek Bachchan tested positive for the novel coronavirus. Dharmendra and Amitabh have worked together on several hits of the 1970s-80s including Sholay, Chupke Chupke and Ram Balram.

The 84-year-old star said he is sure his "courageous younger brother" will bounce back in no time.

"Amit, get well soon. I am sure of my courageous younger brother... he will soon be fit and fine in a day or two..." Dharmendra wrote on Twitter.

Dharmendra also extended support to Jaya, his Guddi co-star.

"Jaya, don't worry... everything will be fine my brave baby... Look after yourself and everyone at home... Love you all... take care," he added.

Dharmendra's wife, actor-MP Hema Malini also took to Twitter to wish good health to Amitabh.

"Amit ji has tested positive & has been admitted to Nanavati hospital. I pray for his well being & I'm sure that with all our collective prayers, he will come out of this safely (sic)" Malini, who has worked with the actor in films like Sholay, Trishul, Baabul, Baghban among others, said.
