    The ongoing buzz on social media about the death of veteran writer and Bollywood actor Kader Khan are mere rumours as the actor is still alive, a source close to the Khan family said.
     
    "All these tweets and posts are rumours. He is very much alive. I had a word with him late in the evening," Fauzia Arshi, director of "Hogaya Dimaagh Ka Dahi", the movie in which Khan was last seen acting, told IANS on late on Saturday.
     
    "I would request all to stop these rumours," she added.
