Reports recently surfaced on the internet all over claiming ill health of veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah & that he was being hospitalised for the same. However, soon after the actor & his family realised the false news & hoax that was being circulated everywhere, Shah rubbished all such rumours about his hospitalisation & posted on Facebook on Thursday regarding the same to clear the air.

On a Facebook post, Shah, 69, wrote, “I thank all those enquiring after my health and reassure them I am fine. I’m at home and observing the lockdown. Please don’t believe any rumours.” 

The acclaimed actor's son Vivaan Shah also took to Twitter to dismiss all the false news & assured everyone that all is fine by writing, "All well everyone! Baba's just fine. All the rumours about his health are fake. He's keeping well Praying for Irfan Bhai and Chintu ji. Missing them a lot. Deepest condolences to their families. Our hearts go out to all of them. It's a devastating loss for all of us."

As the industry & all of India were just coming to terms of the passing of legendary actors like Irrfan Khan & Rishi Kapoor, people on the internet spread rumours about Shah's health & about his hospitalisation on social media.

It has been just two days that we lost a marvel named Irrfan Khan (53) who passed away suffering from neuroendocrine tumour & just a day has gone by bidding adieu to a veteran & a genius named Rishi Kapoor (67) who battled with leukemia. Bollywood is certainly facing a real tough time; the entire country mourned both the actor’s death as if it was their personal loss. Such has been the impact of these legends on the audiences through their extraordinary performances in each of their films.
