Re: SAME HAPPENING TO UPA

I agree but its not only RK who was like that. Majority stars are like that be it SRK, Salman, Amir, AB etc. Just that RK showed it openly and these people do it behind back doors. RK did not know how to act in real life like other stars hence we know about his arrogance and selfishness.
Rajesh Khanna and Mr Bachan Gave hits when it was difficult to promote films, but nowadays film promotions are done even for pakis, Proud to be a Hindu and proud to be an Indian only because of people like AB and RK
Its still an enigma how he married Dimple and all of a sudden? Dimple was not that recognised in the bollywood compared other super star heroines like Sharmila, Mumtaz, etc. I would say, he was forced/compelled to marry Dimple by RK for reason better known only to both. Its not a happy marriage and fully consented by both.

his author is trying to defame Khanna. Just consider the logic - Khanna despite being the highest paid actor was appraoched by producers again and again thats the reason he has 106 solo hero films and only 22 muti star films.He holds record for max films as solo lead hero author backed roles.Producers never shied away. Plus each producer and director has repeated Khanna in 3 films minimmum.His filmography from 1966-1991 proves a lot. He has min 2 films releasing every year from 1969-1991. He has 95 box office hits and got the best music because he used to sit for music sessions.Thats possible only when you are liked by all and respected for your acting skills.RK was very humble and infact generous. Poeple have taken bunglows, cars from him and inudustry people have praised him for being so humble - Khayyam, Raza Murad, Amitabh etc in interviews.Also Amitabh just did angry young man films. Khanna's fimography shows he has done wide varity of films of many genres and achieved success. Romance was just an element in Khanna's films but each film of his was of different genre.Avatar was remade as Baghbhan, Anokha Rishta remade as Lamhe,Nishabd and Sachca Jhuta as Don. Go and See Redrose, Aaj Ka M.L.A Ram Avatr, Babu, Tyaag, Amardeep, Awaaz, Bawarchi etc-- were they romantic films ? they were each of different genres. Khanna has 153 films in 25 years and 128 as lead hero (106 solo hero films and only 22)Amitabh mostly has muti star films only.RK DID MEANINGFUL MOVIES

Good joke! SRK and dignity are two opposite terms..can't u recollect from recent incidences with SRK including stadium drama or USa drama or his fights in parties....in fact SRK ust make u remember Rajesh Khanna, both arrogant, famous due to girl fans, both arrogant and insulting to others, thinking only about self and frustrated desperate when others won. The only difference is that Rajesh Khanna's stardom was much much bigger than what SRK sees today. He was clear cut superstar unlike SRK who has to share his superstardom with Amir, Salman, Akshay and Hrithik. When Khanna was superstar, people would kill anyone who would rant/criticize against him...and here this man is rated as the most hated star of current time of hindi cinema!
Why he is saying all these things now after his death.... Some people have the tendency of being having a different perspective just for the sake of it....If its true should have told when the legend was living......may be we will come to know about his true feeling for Rajesh Khanna when he dies... and I wan't that to happen soon.

I think these are true, my mom who is a big fan of Rajesh Khanna, told me some of these things...stars are like this.
Just think Amitabh was also not faithful to Jaya who always stood by him!
