| Exclusive: Original Superstar Rajesh Khanna passes away |
The superstar of Bollywood Rajesh Khanna has passed away into the ages. He was 69.
The yesteryear actor had been ailing for some time now, and had been discharged from hospital on Tuesday afternoon. This was his third hospitalisation since he was diagnosed with a kidney problem.
Sources said that the actor was not responding to medicines, and had been put on IV and had been gasping for breath since morning. He had been put on life support.
The mega story had a small beginning in Amritsar. Born Jatin Khanna on Dec 29, 1942, he was adopted and raised by foster parents. He went from being Jatin to Rajesh, thanks to his uncle who changed his name, when he decided to join films. In 1965, the journey to filmdom started after he won the All India Talent Contest organised by United Producers and Filmfare. He made his debut with "Aakhri Khat" in 1966.
