In a witty way, Aamir Khan quashed all the rumours about him hiding Rs 15,000 in wheat bags and donating it to the daily wage workers amid the Novel Coronavirus outbreak in India. Aamir took to his Twitter page and wrote, "Guys, I am not the person putting money in wheat bags. Its either a fake story completely, or Robin Hood doesn't want to reveal himself! Stay safe. Love. a."

The rumours started doing the rounds when a viral video claimed that Aamir sent a truck to a slum with the wheat bags. The video further claimed that each resident took one wheat bag home and later, found Rs 15000 inside the bags.
