HC Stays Order To Hand Over Rajesh Khanna Will To Anita Advani

In a major setback to Anita Advani, live-in partner of Rajesh Khanna, the Bombay High Court stayed the order to hand over the will of the late actor Rajesh Khanna.

This came after Bollywood actress Twinkle Khanna, Rajesh Khannas' daughter appeal against the recent judgement of HC allowing Anita a copy of the will.

Justice JD Dhanuka allowed Anita to have a copy of the will on July 30. Meanwhile, Twinkle Khanna appealed against this order before the Chief Justice Mohit Shah. On July 31, the Chief Justice heard the appeal and granted an interim relief and posted the matter to hear on August 4.

On August 4, the HC stayed the order and earlier Anita claimed that she was the rightful partner as she had taken care of Rajesh Khanna at his bungalow 'Ashirwad' during his last years.

However, Twinkle Khanna's lawyer argued that Anita was neither a legal heir nor a member of the family as they were not married legally. Anita Advani is likely to challenge this decision of High Court.

Recently, the bungalow which Rajesh Khanna was living till his last breath had gone on sale. Rajesh Khanna died in July 2012 after a prolonged illness.
