"So...media conjectures that I am ill is incorrect! That neck brace that they see me wearing is part of my costume in 'PIKU"," the 72-year-old, who's shooting the movie in Kolkata, tweeted Monday.

Once the rumours of his illness began doing the rounds, Big B received a barrage of messages from his 'extended family' on social networking platforms.

He also clarified it on his Twitter handle.

The film is being directed by Shoojit Sircar. Big B plays father to Deepika Padukone in it.
