Here's what your favourite Bollywood celebrities are tweeting.

Celebrity imposters aren't new to social-networking sites. Facebook and Twitter has hundreds of accounts that claim to be the official accounts of famous people.

It gets bad when the imposters start making controversial statements. It happened with actress Chitrangada Singh recently.

A Chitrangada imposter had tweeted: 'How do you compete with Poonam Pandey, when she is ready strip for kabbadi matches?'

Thinking it was Chitrangada who said it, Poonam Pandey replied: 'Tweethearts!! it really feels gr8 when people use ur name to garner Publicity! it reminds me a dialouge from the film GURU. "Jab Log tumhare khilaf bolne lage Samajh lo Taraki kar rahe ho" – GURU.'

She later abused the actress, and added: 'Its so funny how the people who know the least about you, have the most to say. Jealousy: That's what makes a b talk.'

Poonam did not stop there. She accused Chits for using Poonam's name for publicity! 'TweetHearts!!! there is this Actress she had 700 followers since many months started using my name now has 1300+ in a day ... hahah how cheap any one can be arrey yaar itna bhi "Garib" mat bano :P' she tweeted.

Director Shirish Kunder finally clarified on Singh's behalf saying she isn't on Twitter. 'FYI - Chitrangda Singh is not on Twitter. The one tweeting controversial statements on her behalf is a FAKE,' he updated.

Juhi Chawla, who was last seen sharing screen space with Sanjay Dutt in the 1999 thriller Safari, recently started shooting with the actor again for Ajay Devgn's home production Son Of Sardar

'In patiala now ... Lovely to be back ... In this little town ... With the unit of Son of Sardar ... I actually missed them,' she updated.

Meanwhile, Abhishek Bachchan has apparently lost Neeraj Pandey's next film Special Chabbis to Akshay Kumar. 'Loving shooting for my new film with Neeraj Pandey, he knows what he wants & how he wants it. It's refreshing + gives me a break from improvising :)' Kumar updated.

Meanwhile, Anupam Kher -- ‏who is shooting for the same film in Delhi -- shared a picture of Akshay doing yoga as he wrote: 'If I just watch Akshay Kumar exercising (yoga in water) for one month I'll have a better body than Salman Khan.:)'
