Vinod Khanna, one of the stalwarts of yesteryear, passed away yesterday after battling a fight with cancer. While his last rites was attended by a sea of celebrities and well wishers, veteran actor Rishi Kapoor observed that the younger generation of tinsel town failed to show up for the same.

Not a man who will mince his words, Chintuji took to Twitter to express his displeasure. "Shameful. Not ONE actor of this generation attended Vinod Khanna's funeral. And that too he has worked with them. Must learn to respect," wrote Rishi Kapoor.
