After being trolled by the Twitterati for his belated response on 'The Blue or Black Dress', Bollywood 'Greek God' Hrithik Roshan is being trolled again for tweeting against Manipuri tribals.
The actor made a mistake by mentioning 'tribals' instead of 'militants' while condemning the killing of 20 soldiers in an ambush by militants on 4 June in the state's Chandel district.
"My heartfelt condolences to d families of the 20 jawans killed in a mindless ambush by Manipur tribals.... salute," the actor tweeted on Thursday.
Soon after the actor's tweet, users of the micro-blogging site went berserk, chiding him and making fun of his ignorance.

Though the actor realised his faux pas and corrected it with another tweet mentioning 'unidentified Manipur tribal militant groups', the Twitterati had already called him 'ignorant' and 'dumbo'.
