Hrithik Roshan says army men killed by Manipur 'tribals', gets trolled
Mumbai: Hrithik Roshan was lately trending on the social media for all the wrong reasons, after posting about 'the dress' which went viral ages ago. Yesterday, he took Twitter to condemn the militant attack in Manipur that killed 18 soldiers. The actor, however, landed himself in a soup with what appears to be a lapse of judgement.
My heartfelt condolences to d families of the 20 jawans killed in a mindless ambush by Manipur tribals. http://t.co/A91V4VnA1G salute.

Even though he later rectified it, he couldn't be saved from the backlash.
Correction- unidentified Manipur tribal militant groups .. To be more precise.

Who manages Hrithik's twitter? He is being trashed for his Manipur tweet blunder since yesterday. Tweet hasn't been deleted/changed.

@iHrithik: "Manipuri tribals" equivalent to terrorists? Should 't you be using the term "Manipuri terrorists", or "terrorists in Manipur"?

@iHrithik Not by Manipuri tribals. But by militant group. Don't blame innocent Manipuris.
