Actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha gave the Indian Twitterati reason for a good laugh unwittingly when he decided to wish his dear friend and veteran actor Kader Khan.
Sinha tweeted wishing Khan on his birthday - a very thoughtful thing to do no doubt... only it was not Kader Khan’s birthday. Also, the strangely worded message sounded rather like a condolence for a deceased person. (Kader Khan is currently living in Canada with his family. )
What’s more, the BJP MP paired the tweet with a picture of himself not in the company - not of Kader Khan - but Amitabh Bachchan!
Check out his tweet here:
Twitterati could hardly be expected to let this opportunity go and they went berserk trolling Shatrughan Sinha for this blunder. Some of these tweets are nothing short of gems:
It took Sinha more than nine hours to clarify part of this blunder.
