In his tweet, the 52-year-old actor clarified that his sister hasn't travelled anywhere since the lockdown was announced and that she has only one child, contrary to what was reported. "This news about me booking a charter flight for my sister and her two kids is fake from start to end. She has not travelled anywhere since the lockdown and she has only one child! Contemplating legal action, enough of putting up with false, concocted reports," tweeted Akshay Kumar.

Releasing a statement on social media, Akshay tweeted: "Corona ke samay fake news toh bahot suni, ab fake casting bhi ho rahi hai #Filhall yeh padhiye #FakeNewsAlert #FakeCastingAlert."

"For all the Filhall fans out there! It has been brought to our notice that some impostors have made a fake news for casting of the song Filhall part 2. We, the team of Filhall, would like to clarify that neither we nor our production house/banner have authorised or engaged any individual, agency, partnership firm or company to cast for the sequel of our song Filhall," read an excerpt from the statement.
