Amitabh Bachchan paid a visit to Shiv Sena chief Balasaheb Thackeray at his residence 'Matoshree' in Bandra East, a suburban Mumbai, on August 15.

The 86-year-old Shiv Sena patriarch was admitted to a hospital last month for eight days after he complained of breathing problems. His condition is stable now.
