Khanna a perfect gentleman with perennial smile: Sumitra Mahajan

Condoling the demise of film star-cum-politician Vinod Khanna, Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan on Thursday said he would be remembered as a perfect gentleman with a perennial smile on his face.

"I am deeply saddened to learn about Vinod Khanna's sad and untimely demise. Besides being a senior and dedicated politician, he was also a versatile actor who mesmerised his admirers across the world as a suave and sensitive actor," Mahajan said in her condolence message.

Noting Khanna was a sitting member of the lower house, she noted that he had also served the nation as a Minister in the Union Council of Ministers and in his fourth stint as MP.

 

"In his demise, we have lost a capable leader and talented actor, who will be remembered by each one of us as a perfect gentleman with a perennial smile on his face. I convey my condolences to the bereaved members of his family and the large number of his fans," she said.
