However, when questioned about the absence of his wife and son Ranbir Kapoor, he replied back saying, ”Yes it has been expressed earlier on social media my wife and Ranbir are out of the country. Would never had been reason not to be there,”
In a series of tweets, an apparently angered Kapoor, strongly criticized the ‘no-show’ by most of the major young Bollywood stars. Those in attendance, included Khanna’s former co-star Amitabh Bachchan along with son Abhishekh Bachchan, Dia Mirza, Randeep Hooda, Randhir Kapoor, Jackie Shroff and Subhash Ghai among a few others.
An infuriated Kapoor tweeted, “Shameful. Not ONE actor of this generation attended Vinod Khanna’s funeral. And that too he has worked with them. Must learn to respect. Why this? Including mine and thereafter.When I die, I must be prepared.None will shoulder me. Very very angry with today’s so called stars.”
