Reacting to the hoax with humour, the 65-year-old actor tweeted: “Sorry for the misunderstanding as I slept past 7am…!”

The actor’s fans, however, are not amused by the death hoax. While some expressed anger, others prayed for his long life. Some fans also shared memes featuring the actor, for tackling the fake news with humour.
