Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan slammed reports of him testing negative for COVID-19.
The actor, who is currently undergoing treatment at Mumbai’s Nanavati Hospital, tweeted his reaction to news doing the rounds that he will soon be discharged.
Amitabh posted on Twitter, “this news is incorrect, irresponsible, fake and an incorrigible LIE!!”
Nevertheless, the Bollywood veteran, 77, is currently admitted in Nanavati Hospital, Mumbai.
When initially diagnosed for the disease, Amitabh instantly asked everyone who had remained in close proximity to him to get tested as well. "I have tested COVID-19 positive... shifted to a hospital. All that has been in close proximity to me in the last 10 days are requested to please get themselves tested.”
