Confirming the news that his social media accounts were hacked on Thursday, Shahid Kapoor cautioned fans and followers to avoid any interaction on his Twitter handle.
The 'Padmaavat' star, who welcomed his second child - a baby boy on Wednesday, took to his Instagram story to post that both his social media accounts were hacked but he has got back access to Instagram.
The 37-year-old began the message by thanking everyone for their wishes. "Hey guys thank you for the wonderful wishes. My Instagram and Twitter have been hacked. Just got my Insta back."
Shahid further said that his team is "working on sorting Twitter. So please know it's not me and avoid any interaction."
Earlier in the day, a series of absurd tweets were posted on Shahid's Twitter timeline, including messages praising Alauddin Khalji.
The actor's account has allegedly been hacked by 'Pro-Pakistan' Turkish cyber army Ayyildiz Tim.
