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.
