Vinod Kambli hits out at troll who tagged him in place of Vinod Khanna after actor's death

New Delhi: Former Indian cricketer Vinod Kambli on Thursday severely hit out at a fan who tagged him in a obituary Twitter post after the death of legendary Bollywood actor Vinod Khanna.

Vinod Khanna, who was suffering from cancer from some time, passed away at the age of 70 today.

While tributes poured in from all corners, one of the trolls wrongly tagged Vinod Kambli instead of the actor on Twitter.

One of the fans reminded him of the errant post which he deleted.
