Mumbai, 6th October: Fake death announcements are not a new phenomenon. Many celebrities have awoken to the news of their own demise spreading on social media! Udit Narayan, the musician, is the latest celebrity to fall prey to the death fake.
Narayan, who has been in Bollywood for 42 years, trended on media for the wrong reasons after news of his heart arrest went viral. According to certain media sites, the legendary singer was hospitalized after suffering a huge heart attack. However, the singer’s manager debunked the rumors and claimed that Narayan was in good health.
In response to the news, Narayan’s manager stated that the singer was OK and had no heart attack. He also mentioned how unhappy the singer was with the information. “I’m not sure where this news is coming from all of a sudden. There are constant phone calls. After seeing the tweets trending on Twitter yesterday night, I spoke with Udit Ji.
