Veteran Actor Mumtaz upset on her death rumours, ‘Jab Marungi tab aapko pta chal jaega’

If you read somewhere that some Bollywood personality has taken abode to heaven, please stop and confirm if it’s real or hoax! We have heard many a time that fake news takes a toll on social media and veteran actors become a victim of these death hoaxes. Recently, fake news surfaced on social media, forwarded by netizens about the death of Veteran actor Mumtaz. 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.

Each year her daughter Tanya Madhvani takes to her social media to confirm that her mother Mumtaz is in good health. She also uploaded a video of Mumtaz back in 2018 clarifying the air of her death.

Mumtaz in an interview conducted by Bombay Times 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 went on to state, “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”.

Not only Mumtaz has been into this web of a death hoax, but actors like Naseeruddin Shah also faced such problems, Last month we were extremely shocked and saddened with the demise of Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor. We pray that our beloved stars remain in good health.
