Thank you for entertaining us: B-Town bids adieu to 'Mr. Spock'

Indian film celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit mourned the death of Hollywood actor Leonard Nimoy, popular for his portrayal of extraterrestrial Mr. Spock in the sci-fi TV series and movie saga "Star Trek".

Expressions like "You leave behind a void" and "Thank you for entertaining us" flooded the social media as celebrities took to micro-blogging site Twitter to share their condolence message for Nimoy, who died Friday at his home in Bel Air, Los Angeles.
