  • Vinod Khanna Died On The Same Date As Friend Feroz Khan, Of The Same Disease
Vinod Khanna’s death has shocked Bollywood, and as messages continue to pour in across social media platforms, actor Rishi Kapoor has pointed out a “strange coincidence”. 
 
“Friends Vinod Khanna and Feroz Khan die the same day 27th April. Khan sahab passed away 27th April 2009 Bangalore,” Rishi tweeted. Legendary actor Feroz Khanna died on April 27, 2009 at 69 after battling lung cancer, and Vinod Khanna died of bladder cancer at 70 on April 27, 2017.
 
Feroz was not only Vinod’s co-star but also directed him. The two, known to be thick friends, first worked together in the 1976 film Shankar Shambhu, in which they played the title roles.
 
Their biggest box office success was the 1980 film Qurbani, directed by Feroz Khan.
