A Quote by Jeetendra

Jatin Khanna and I both changed our names for the silver screen. He became known the world over as Rajesh Khanna and from Ravi Kapoor, I transformed into Jeetendra! A little known fact is that we were also school friends.

Indian - Actor
Born: April 7, 1942

It was the '70s when mediocrity came in Hindi films. That's when the actor called Rajesh Khanna joined the industry. For all his success, I think Mr. Khanna was a very limited actor. In fact, he was a poor actor.

Naseeruddin Shah

I sang at least one hit for almost every star - Dharmendra, Jeetendra and Vinod Khanna included, and several hits for all the Khans, Akshay Kumar, Rishi Kapoor and many more.

Kumar Sanu

If there has to be one favourite actor of mine, it has to be Rajesh Khanna.

Dimple Kapadia

When Rajesh Khanna died, I cried so much, my husband was confused.

Sudha Murty

Nobody knows the man behind Rajesh Khanna, because that never existed. In his last few days, he had told me, 'Pack up, show is over.'

Dimple Kapadia

I got to work with A-grade stars like Rajendra Kumar, Feroz Khan and Rajesh Khanna.

Mumtaz

I have always looked up to Rajesh Khanna sir's work. And when I think of biopics, his is the first name that comes to my mind.

Pulkit Samrat

My journey with Rajesh Khanna was good, thrilling... a roller coaster ride. I feel honoured to have two children with him.

Dimple Kapadia

I found myself playing Rajesh Khanna's mother just nine years after I played his leading lady in 'Khamoshi.'

Waheeda Rehman

There would be no 'Sholay' without Dharmendra, no 'Amar Akbar Anthony' without Vinod Khanna and Rishi Kapoor, no 'Deewar' without Shashi Kapoor, and no 'Dostana' without Shatrughan Sinha.

Rishi Kapoor

I have always seen Rajesh Khanna coming on the sets with his secretary only and no one from his family.

Vishwajeet Pradhan

As a star-son it's a constant struggle to move away from being known as Vinod Khanna's son and create my own space.

Akshaye Khanna

The biggest high for me was to marry Rajesh Khanna. That was a high, and I don't think my success was as much of a high as getting married to this superstar. I used to be a big fan of his; it was dream come true.

Dimple Kapadia

It's a brutal world out there. If you consider the case of superstar Rajesh Khanna, he was a darling of the masses in his hey days, and his fans resurfaced only after he passed away. Such is the life of actors: one gets so addicted to fame and glory, and then it is very difficult to accept a fall. You are forgotten and only remembered when you die!

Bipasha Basu

To subvert is not the aim of literature, its value lies in discovering and revealing what is rarely known, little known, thought to be known but in fact not very well known of the truth of the human world. It would seem that truth is the unassailable and most basic quality of literature.
