Abhishek Bachchan’s Twitter account was hacked on Wednesday by pro-Pakistani Turkish cyber army Ayyildiz Tim, which had earlier hacked veteran actor Anupam Kher’s Twitter account.
As a result of the hacking, the blue, verified tick from Abhishek's profile had vanished and his profile photo was replaced by a photo of a missile that read Ayyildiz Tim in chalk. Abhishek’s profile also had several tweets in Turkish.
The issue, though, was sorted by Twitter later in the evening and the actor took a humorous look at the whole thing.
"Yes, yes my account got hacked. Quite chuffed that they thought me interesting enough actually. All sorted out now and back to normal. Well.... As normal as it can get. Thank you for your concern(sic)" the actor wrote.
On February 6th, FTII Chairman and veteran actor Anupam Kher's Twitter account was hacked by the same group and was later restored by Twitter.
