Social media is a place where anything can happen these days, people can suddenly die and then miraculously come back from the dead! Yes, and we are not kidding. People just keep sharing information that is point blank misleading! Many a time such hoaxes about senior actors grip the social media like a fever.
Recently, the fake news about veteran actor Mumtaaz’s death surfaced on social media yet again. This is not the first time that she has been on the radar of fake death news. It has been happening for the last three years and now she is really upset with such fake rumours.
Every year her daughter Tanya Madhvani takes to her social media to confirm that her mother Mumtaz is in good health. She had also uploaded a video of Mumtaz back in 2018 in order to clear the air about her mother’s health.
Take a look -
It was during an interview with Bombay Times, the former actress expressed her frustration on this matter. She said, “Oh! I am hale and hearty. Main abhi zinda hoon. I am glad someone called to check officially. I don’t know why someone is deliberately doing this. Is it some kind of a joke? Last year, it shook my family and everyone called in, worried sick. My near and dear ones were in different parts of the world and it traumatised all of them.”
She said she has been piqued with such fake news, “In a way, it also troubled me a lot. This year, my daughters, grandkids, sons-in-law and my husband are all here with me in London. The lockdown has kept us all at home, together, and safe. Of course, I have more relatives around the world who got worried reading what made the rounds last night. Mujhe kyun maarna chahte hain log? Jab waqt aayega to main khud hi chali jaaongi,” she added.
She further said, “Jab Marungi tab meri family officially bta degi sbko. It won’t be a secret”.
Besides Mumtaz actor Naseeruddin Shah also faced such problems. Last month we were shocked to hear about Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor’s death. We hope everyone just stays hale and hearty.
