Manipur attack: Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan in trouble with just 1 message on Twitter

Mumbai, June 5: Just one tweet on micro-blogging site Twitter and Hrithik Roshan landed in trouble. The Bollywood actor irked many people with his one tweet on Manipur attack.

Hrithik, who recently was trolled on Twitter over his late tweet on "The Dress", once again made headlines. This time he claimed that the terror attack in Manipur was carried out by "Manipuri tribals."

Seconds after his tweet on the attack on Thursday, June 4, Hrithik faced criticism as people started commenting on his tweet highlighting his ignorance towards the real reason.

[Manipur attack: At least 70 militants involved]

However, the actor realised his mistake and corrected his statement by tweeting that the attack in Manipur was carried out by militants. Despite his effort to make the correction, Hrithik's previous tweet had already done the damage.

Here are the tweets by Hrithik and a few tweets which criticised the Bollywood actor:

My heartfelt condolences to d families of the 20 jawans killed in a mindless ambush by Manipur tribals. http://t.co/A91V4VnA1G salute.

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

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

@iBratati To err and apologize is human. To err and care a damn about it is @iHrithik

Attacking @iHrithik like that for his tweet about the #ManipurAttack is a bit too harsh. We all know his intentions were not wrong. :-)
