Rajesh Khanna, Rajendra Kumar's common interest in Dimple!

Bollywood's late superstar Rajesh Khanna's iconic bungalow 'Aashirwad' in Mumbai, may reportedly be converted into a museum very soon, but many of us do not know the bungalow's past. It is also believed that Khanna's house was haunted, but the residence also has a past related to the name 'Dimple'.

Well, do not let your imaginations fly too high since we are definitely not talking about Khanna's wife Dimple Kapadia in particular. Reports say that Rajesh Khanna had purchased the Cartar Road bungalow from the yesteryear actor Rajendra Kumar, during the 60s. Interestingly, Rajendra Kumar, back then had named the bungalow after his daughter Dimple.

Rajendra Kumar left the bungalow and shifted to his new house Pali Hill, that was again named 'Dimple'. Interestingly, Rajesh Khanna, who was a bachelor back then, wanted to name his new Cartar Road bunaglow after his lady love: Dimple Kapadia. So, he desperately wanted to retain the name, but unfortunately, Rajendra Kumar did not allow Khanna to do so, as Dimple was his first choice. So, a heart-broken Khanna had to name his house as 'Aashirwad'. So, now we know, both Khanna and Kumar shared a common interest in DIMPLE.
