When Rajesh Khanna started throwing starry tantrums

By Puri

Rajesh Khanna was India's first superstar and highest paid actor of his time. He is the only actor till date to give 15 superhit films continuously. But the actor took success for granted and started throwing starry tantrums.

It is said that after becoming superstar Rajesh Khanna became totally unprofessional in his behaviour. He used to come late on sets and his day used to start at 3 pm. He thought he was a god and people should wait for him. However, producers did not complain because they knew that once the movie will release, it will recover all the money. And also Rajesh Khanna used to finish the entire day's work in hours.

Rajesh Khanna forced the directors to include death scene in his movies. He was famous for changing the script of the films according to his liking. Khanna was scared of only one director, Hrishikesh Mukherjee, he worked with him in movies like Anand, Namak Haram and Bawarchi.
