Wait, it was not just Times Now which goofed up on legendary actor Shashi Kapoor's death...BBC too was no better.

As soon as news of the tragedy broke, netizens and media houses played up the story while tearful tributes poured in on the social media platforms. BBC too picked up the story but while the anchor was talking about the demise of Shashi Kapoor, a video clip featuring Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan played on the screen. It was not until one of the viewers alerted the BBC that the channel realised its blunder. The channel was quick to apologise.

Here's a look at what happened.

Hang on @bbcnews Shashi Kapoor has died not Amitabh Bachan or Rishi Kapoor, who you've weirdly used to illustrate the story. pic.twitter.com/48jo6DGjU6

#BBCNewsTen is very sorry wrong images were used to mark the death of Shashi Kapoor. Not our usual standards and I apologise for any upset.

Did BBC News at 10 cover the Shashi Kapoor story but just showed footage of Amitabh Bhachan and Rishi Kapoor? I'm no Bollywood expert but that's what it looked like to me. My sister thought Amitabh had died as well!? ?

@BBCNews Too bad BBC News at 10 you broadcasted the news of Shashi Kapoors demise with film snippets of Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan in it, two completely wrong and totally alive actors. Correct film, Kabhi Kabhi, but wrong actors aired. Very stupid and rude indeed!

I'm really annoyed about the BBC Shashi Kapoor thing. DOES ANYONE GIVE A DAMN? If you do, please tweet the editor @paulroyall

Lol. To confuse one Bollywood actor for the late Shashi Kapoor may be regarded as a misfortune; to confuse two looks like carelessness https://t.co/49sOwzqUcA
