Remembering Rajesh Khanna On His 76th Birth Anniversary

Crowned as the Hindi film industry's first official superstar, Rajesh Khanna had a very distinct persona. He was never considered as the most handsome man of Bollywood but his charm was irresistible. Khanna's strength lied in his understanding of the popular mindset. He achieved the fame that no other film star had ever experienced before.
