We heard Kaka's going to enter the Bigg Boss house. After Kamaal Khan being booted out of the show for his disgraceful behaviour, Colors is considering bringing in veteran actor Rajesh Khanna as a wildcard entry. Here are some interesting facts about Kaka:
The actor had previously refused to participate in Bigg Boss because he wanted to be provided regular daru in the house, a request that was declined by Colors. Now however, the actor is having second thoughts and says that he wants to be a part of the show, since the drama on the show is intoxicating enough.u00a0
Khanna was born in Amritsar on December 29, 1942 and was adopted by parents who already had three daughters of their own.
His real name is Jatin Khanna and he joined the film industry after winning an All India Talent Contest.
Although his first film was Aakhri Khat, it was Aradhna which made him a superstar overnight.u00a0
He was quite a ladies man and had a string of affairs. Among the women he dated were Anju Mahendru and Tina Munim. He divorced his wife Dimple Kapadia in 1984.
During the peak of his career, he would be mobbed during public appearances. Fans lined the road, cheering and chanting his name and kissed his car. His car was often found covered with lipstick marks. Female fans also sent him letters written in their own blood.
