On Thursday, a picture of veteran star Vinod Khanna from the hospital broke everyone's heart. The actor, reportedly suffering from bladder cancer, is admitted at a hospital in Girgaon and undergoing treatment after he complained of dehydration last week.
After the picture of a frail and pale Khanna went viral on the Internet, there were several stories about the actor that started doing the rounds. One entertainment website mistook Vinod Khanna to be 'Rajesh Khanna'. And Twitter whad field day.
The Twitterati mercilessly slammed the portal for wrongly calling Vinod ji by Rajesh ji's name. TV actor Karan Patel too pointed it out and slammed the portal.
This is the level of entertainment journalism ... one legend 'Vinod Khanna' is mistakenly named as another legend 'Rajesh Khanna' .. #Shame pic.twitter.com/pykpGIw9R7
