New Delhi [India], Apr. 9 : Veteran actor Vinod Khanna, who was admitted in HN Reliance Foundation and Research Centre in Girgaum, Mumbai, on March 31 due to severe dehydration, is better now, says a medical bulletin released by the hospital today.
Since the time the veteran actor's picture showing him in a bad shape went viral, rumours about his demise started doing the rounds on the social media.
Going a step further, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Meghalaya observed a two-minute silence on Saturday to pay respect to the actor.
