During an episode of the show Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, Vinod Khanna and his wife, Kavita Khanna, were present.
Kavita Khanna spoke about her life with the actor, and when asked if it was difficult to live with Vinod Khanna, Kavita Khanna responded by saying that “he is a very taxing person to live with, but that is Vinod, and that is what I liked about him when we first started talking to each other. He was extending boundaries of thought, and it was wonderful to do it at midnight when I was in that space. To have it do that every day with routine things you do in life is a little taxing."
She continued by saying, “But then, you know, I think the strength that you have to carry it to an extreme also becomes our weakness. Like he admires my mind, but when it gets too analytical, he doesn’t like it.”
Although she did not elaborate on what made him taxing to live with, it is clear that their relationship had its challenges.
