Amitabh Bachchan's Twitter account hacked

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan's Twitter account, which boasts of over 44 thousand followers, has been hacked.

The 72-year-old "Piku" star alleged the hacker planted adult sites in the 'following' section of his account on the micro-blogging site.

An upset Bachchan tweeted, "WHOA!... My Twitter handle hacked! Sex sites planted as 'following'! Whoever did this, try someone else, buddy, I don't need this!"
