Hrithik Roshan tweets about being at Istanbul airport just hours before attack

Actor Hrithik Roshan actually escaped death by inches as he was there at the Istanbul airport a little before three suicide bombers attacked, killing 36 and injuring close to 150 people.

The 42-year-old actor took to his Twitter handle to share the news and said,

The Bang Bang was on a vacation in Spain and Africa with his sons Hrehaan and Hridhaan and was on his way to India via Istanbul.

The attack on Europe's third-busiest airport is one of the deadliest in a series of suicide bombings in Turkey, which is struggling to contain the spillover from neighbouring Syria's civil war and battling an insurgency by Kurdish militants in its southeast.

One attacker opened fire in the departures hall with an automatic rifle, sending passengers diving for cover and trying to flee, before all three blew themselves up in or around the arrivals hall a floor below, witnesses and officials said.
