It came as no surprise when the super hit Bollywood movie ‘Hindi Medium’ won big at the 63rd Filmfare Awards last weekend, but what shocked everyone was when Indian pacer Irfan Pathan was congratulated by an Indian magazine ‘Femina’ on twitter for winning the ‘Best actor’ award for the leading role in the movie.
A day ago, Bollywood hosted the 63rd Filmfare Awards and the entire Indian film fraternity and celebrities marked their presence at the event. The movie that won big was ‘Hindi Medium’, the unexpected super hit of 2017, which won the awards for both the ‘Best Movie’ and ‘Best Actor’ in the leading role categories.
The main actor Irrfan Khan was honored with the prestigious award for his flawless portrayal. However, a leading magazine congratulated the wrong Irfan on winning the award, by tagging Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan on a post they shared on Twitter, instead of Irrfan Khan, which started a funny banter on social media.
Thank u n sorry I couldn’t make it but u can send the award to me at my home ;);)

Indian fast bowler wrote back to the page thanking them for the honor and apologizing for not attending the event in the funniest way. Soon after Irfan’s response, many twitter users jumped on the opportunity to make fun of the situation and criticizing the ‘Femina’ magazine for their silly mistake.
The movie ‘Hindi Medium’ also starred Pakistani actress Saba Qamar and the actress was also nominated for the ‘Best Actress’ in the leading role category.
