Earlier in the day, as speculations swirled, different sources had different stories to tell various media outlets about Bachchan's health. Though the reports could not be independently verified, #Amitabh Bachchan and #Kokilaben Hospital were top trends on X for much of the day.

The reports started in the afternoon with some saying he had gone to the Kokilaben hospital for a routine check. Others said he was hospitalised for an angioplasty -- a balloon procedure to open up blocked arteries and blood vessels -- to remove a blockage in his leg. And there were some who reported he had an angioplasty for a blocked artery.

That the superstar had posted a cryptic message on X at noon on Friday added to the mystery. "T 4950  in gratitude ever," he said. An hour later, he put out a promotional video on son Abhishek's 'Majhi Mumbai' team for the Street Premier League.

On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan was last seen in a cameo appearance in Tiger Shroff's 'Ganapath'. His upcoming films include Deepika Padukone and Prabhas-starrer 'Kalki AD 2898'. He will also be seen featuring alongside Rajinikanth in the Tamil film, 'Vettaiyan'.
