When Rajesh Khanna’s Supposed Flame Anita Advani Spilled the Beans on the Actor’s Occasional Temper Tantrums: “He Could Lose It Over Anything”

Ah, the ever-dramatic saga of Bollywood! Where the lights are always bright, and the stories are always spicier than a plate of extra masala samosas. Today’s juicy tidbit comes from the vault of the legendary Rajesh Khanna, the one and only ‘Kaka’ of tinsel town. Let’s just say, this story is loaded with more twists than a typical Bollywood thriller!

Rajesh Khanna: The Superstar with a Chaotic Personal Life

Rajesh Khanna, the original superstar, had fans swooning in the ’60s and ’70s faster than you can say "Aradhana." With a string of solo blockbusters and a charisma that could melt butter, he was the king of Bollywood. But alas, behind the curtain, his life was more filmy than his films.

In ’73, he tied the knot with Dimple Kapadia, but like many a Bollywood marriage, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine. Their relationship hit the skids faster than you can say "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai," leading to a long separation that never quite culminated in divorce.

Anita Advani Spills the Beans on Living with Khanna

Enter Anita Advani, former actress and self-proclaimed partner of Khanna. In a tell-all interview with Rediff post-Khanna’s swan song, she dropped bombshells that could give any masala flick a run for its money. According to Anita, living with Khanna was like navigating a minefield, especially when the old superstar had a drink or two. "Banda thoda zyada hi difficult tha," she mused. "After a peg, his mood swings were faster than a Rajdhani Express."

In a tête-à-tête with Avanti Films, Anita doubled down on her allegations. She painted a picture of a turbulent relationship, punctuated by her claims of physical altercations. "He’d give me a ‘kada’ in front of Balaji, accepting me as his own," she said. But, as Anita recalls, those blissful moments were often overshadowed by bouts of violence. "Kabhi kabhi maarte the, toh main bhi waapas maar deti thi. Reflex action, you see."

Yet, despite her claims, Anita’s legal tussle with Khanna’s family over his property was a flop show, dismissed by the courts faster than an item song at a family gathering.
