Farokh Engineer death hoax: Rishi Kapoor tweets, later apologises!

Actor Rishi Kapoor is known to be an avid social media follower. But on Tuesday he found himself in a false position, literally, after having tweeted condolences to the family of Farokh Engineer on the cricketer’s death. The actor, however, quickly apologised after the gaffe was pointed out.

Sorry to have sent a RIP to Mr. Faroukh Engineer. This was because I was flooded by this false rumour.My apologies to the family and friends

— Rishi Kapoor (@chintskap) October 25, 2016

This rumour sequence started on Sunday when media houses started pestering the legend with phone calls to find out the truth behind this matter. It was former Mumbai captain Sishir Hattangadi who rubbished all the rumours and confirmed that Engineer is alive in a Facebook post.
