New Delhi:
TV star Karanvir Bohra was left red-faced after confusing two actors with the first name Kushal in a post related to Suicide Prevention Day. “I loved Kushal Tandon so much,” he wrote in a tweet responding to a news report on a mental health awareness campaign he is spearheading – only, he meant actor Kushal Punjabi, who died by suicide last December at the age of 37. “Sorry, not Kushal Tandon but Kushal Punjabi, typo,” Karanvir Bohra clarified in a follow-up tweet. However, the damage was done. Kushal Tandon responded to the actor’s post twice – once to declare himself not dead, the next to rib Karanvir, an expectant father, about staying off the bottle.
“Main zinda hoon, I am not dead,” Kushal Tandon tweeted to Karanvir, adding, “Don’t drink more, you have a baby coming your way.”

Karanvir Bohra was profuse in his apologies. “Sorry sorry bro, it was a typo. I love you too and you know that,” he tweeted back. Karanvir also named a suspect – Chennai Express actor Nikitin Dheer. “That Nikitin Dheer is the chingari, I’m sure he sent it to you,” he wrote.

The ribbing didn’t end there – actor Arjun Bijlani also corrected Karanvir in a tweet, as did many others.
