    About Rajesh Khanna

    Jatin Khanna, professionally known as Rajesh Khanna, stands as Hindi cinema's first undisputed superstar after delivering an unprecedented record of fifteen consecutive solo box-office hits. Born in Amritsar, Punjab, in 1942, he was raised by foster parents in Mumbai and cultivated an early passion for theatre. After winning the 1965 All India Talent Contest, he made his screen debut in *Aakhri Khat* in 1966. Khanna achieved meteoric stardom with the romantic blockbuster *Aradhana* in 1969, launching a golden streak that included *Kati Patang* and *Haathi Mere Saathi*. His sensitive, celebrated performance as a terminally ill protagonist in Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s *Anand* earned him widespread critical acclaim and the Filmfare Best Actor Award. Throughout the 1970s, his charismatic mannerisms, signature kurtas, and melodic screen presence sparked an unprecedented cultural phenomenon termed superstar hysteria. He posthumously received the Padma Bhushan in 2013 for his immense contributions to the arts. His historic career redefined cinematic idolatry, leaving an enduring legacy as the quintessential romantic icon of Indian cinema.
