Journey of a superstar ends
Rajesh Khanna was born in Amritsar on December 29, 1942. Against the wishes of his foster parents he took to acting, and shook the Indian film world by his legendary acting specially during a short period beween 1970 and 1972. While presenting him the life-time achiement award in 2005, Amitabh Bachan had said, 'Rajesh Khanna is the superstar, there was never one before and shall be no one after.' Based on the interviews on TV by Javed Akhtar, Poonam Dhilon, Sabna Azmi, Hema Malini, Asha Parekh, Sharmila Tagore, Mumtaz, Tina Munim, Dilip Kumar and many producers one can fathom the depth that he reached in the hearts of our countrymen. His fame was sky high, his eminence was widespread and his charisma was countrywide. 16 – odd pictures during 1971, all box-office hits, placed Rajesh Khanna in a paradise that none can ever reach. Messages of condolences are pouring in from many heads of states to common men who miss this charismatic actor. His attraction, his magnetic pull and influence shall not die down. His memory shall remain ever fresh. So long as love and romance shall predominate our lives, Rajesh Khanna shall live till that time. Rajesh Khanna has once summed up his journey with great emotion: Izzat shahavate ulfate chahte duniyamei rahate nahin Honour, passion, love and longing do not stay on this earth, The nation condoles the sad death of this worthy son of India. May his soul live in peace. |
