New Delhi, Apr 15: Clearing the air over her tweet which mentioned Bihu as the festival of Bihar instead of Assam, veteran actor and BJP MP Hema Malini on Friday issued an apology on the same and admitted her mistake.
The ‘Sholay’ actor received backlash by the social media users after her Thursday’s tweet which read, “It is the Harvest season now. Tamizh Puthandu (New year), Baisakhi (Punjab), Bihu (Bihar) and Pohela Baisakh or Naba Barsha (Bengal) are some of the festivals celebrated. Wish you all a wonderful festival month”.
The ‘dream girl’ of Bollywood , however, on Friday took to the micro blogging site and said by mistake she has wrote Bihu as the festival of Bihar instead of Assam.
“By mistake I have put Bihu is a festival celebrated in Bihar. I am sorry! That should read Bihu, festival of Assam,” the senior actor said.
However, she has deleted both the tweets later following trolling.
