Mumbai, June 21 : Bollywood's beloved 'Kaka'
Rajesh Khanna, who has not been keeping well, is now more than fine, his family said Thursday.
"He's
more than fine. He is absolutely fine. Thank you for your concern,"
Rajesh Khanna's son-in-law, actor
Akshay Kumar told reporters outside
Khanna's bungalow Ashirwad in Bandra here.
Akshay's comment came
after the 69-year-old veteran's manager
Ashwin told IANS Wednesday that
the actor had stopped food intake for the "last three or four days".
Worried
fans lined up outside his house, and India's first superstar Rajesh
Khanna happily obliged by waving to them and showing them the 'V' for
victory sign from the balcony of his house. He was dressed in a crisp
white kurta, a stole and dark shades.
With a heavily bearded
look, he appeared weak, but seemed to be in high spirits as he sported
the same smile which in his heydays made millions of his female fans'
hearts skip a beat.
He was accompanied by his estranged wife
Dimple Kapadia, who takes regular care of him nowadays, as well as
Akshay, who is married to his elder daughter Twinkle.
While Twinkle is expecting her second baby, her younger sister Rinke has flown down to Mumbai to be with her ailing father.
The
actor began his career with "
Aakhri Khat" in 1966. He became a popular
name with his work in films like "Raaz", "Do Raaste" and "Aradhana" and
was crowned "superstar" after he delivered 15 consecutive solo super
hits.
In April, he was admitted to a hospital due to a brief health scare.
He recently featured in a TV commercial for Havell's fan.
