Looks like Shabana Azmi has once again attracted trolls with her goof-up! Azmi took to her Twitter handle to respond to Raveena Tandon's birthday wish that she had posted in 2018 and corrected Tandon in return saying 'Thank you but it is on 18th September'. But the reality is, Azmi mistook it for Raveena wishing her this year and replied. Within seconds, Twitterati started trolling her and asked her to check the date. One user wrote: "This msg is of last year", while the other said: "Message to 18th Sept ka hi hai Shabana ji. Aaj kaise???". Take a look -

This is not the first time Shabana Azmi mistook something on Twitter and got trolled for it. In 2017, she had shared a picture of Indian breakfast dish Poha and captioned it saying it was 'Upma'. And trolls being trolls, showered her tweet with hilarious memes like sharing Eiffel Tower's picture and calling it 'Qutub Minaar' and many more.
