  "account": "Veteran Bollywood actor Raza Murad has expressed outrage over the absence of prominent stars at the funeral of fellow actor Mushtaq Khan. In an emotional Instagram video, Murad lamented that while stars prioritize attending industrialist's son's weddings and serving food as waiters, they were unprepared to pay their final respects to Mushtaq. The actor stated, \"But the sad reality is that none of the stars, whom we call stars, came to pay their final respects to him, while many of his colleagues, actors, did come.\" Murad highlighted that despite Khan's significant contributions to the film industry over 50 years, none of the big names attended his funeral. He added, \"He reached this point only on the strength of his work... There will be regret that there's no star that Mushtaq Khan hasn't worked with, and yet nobody came to meet him one last time.\"",
