Megastar Amitabh Bachchan Shuts Down Health Rumours: Here’s What Really Happened
Renowned Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan recently dispelled all speculations surrounding his health, denouncing reports of his hospitalization as “fake news” and assuring fans of his well-being. The social media sphere was abuzz with concerns earlier today as multiple sources suggested that the megastar had undergone an angioplasty procedure due to either a clot in his leg or a blocked artery.
However, Bachchan swiftly put an end to these rumors as he and his son Abhishek were spotted in the evening at the Dadoji Kondadev Stadium in Thane, attending the final match of the Indian Street Premier League (ISPL) between Majhi Mumbai and Tiigers of Kolkata. In a circulating video captured at the stadium, Bachchan can be seen responding to a fan inquiry about his health with a reassuring “Fake news,” quashing any doubts about his condition.
The day had seen a flurry of conflicting reports regarding Bachchan’s purported hospital visit. Some claimed he had visited the Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital for a routine check-up, while others suggested he had undergone an angioplasty procedure to address either a leg clot or a blocked artery. Despite the widespread speculation, there was no official confirmation from either the hospital or Bachchan’s office throughout the day.
The unverified reports triggered a wave of concern on social media, with hashtags like #AmitabhBachchan and #KokilabenHospital dominating online discussions. Politicians, celebrities, and fans alike took to platforms like X to express their prayers and wishes for Bachchan’s speedy recovery. Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam was among those who shared their well-wishes, posting, “Praying for Amitabh Bachchan’s speedy recovery. #AmitabhBachchan.”
Amitabh Bachchan’s recent cameo appearance in Tiger Shroff’s “Ganapath” has kept fans eagerly anticipating his upcoming projects. Among them is the highly anticipated “Kalki AD 2898,” starring Deepika Padukone and Prabhas, as well as the Tamil film “Vettaiyan,” where he will share the screen with the legendary Rajinikanth.
