Rajesh Khanna Is All Set To Enter The Bigg Boss House

Bollywood yesteryear superhero Rajesh Khanna is all set to be part of Bigg Boss 3. The veteran actor, who will now be introduced as a wildcard entry in the show within the next two weeks, was a strong contender when the channel was finalising the contestants a few days before the show was about to be aired. However, he wasn’t finalised because of dillydallying at that point of time.

“The main problem with Mr Khanna was he wanted permission to be allowed to drink within the house. We couldn’t allow him that,” says a source from the channel.

Things have changed now. With Kamaal R Khan’s inglorious booting-out on Wednesday, the channel is once again negotiating with Rajesh Khanna. This time Rajesh Khanna says he’s willing to give up on his hard drinks till he is inside the house because, apparently, he finds the friction, tension and drama on theshow far more intoxicating than the drinks.

Incidentally, Rajesh Khanna will be paid the highest amount ever given to a contestant. Given that Khanna was Bollywood’s first superstar, it will be interesting to see him interact with the reality show’s pop philosopher Amitabh Bachchan who had taken over as the superstar after him. Source
