Ever wondered why the song “Maine Tere liye hi saat rang ke sapne chune” left such a strong impact on us? Rajesh Khanna! Yes, he is the man who made all the difference. I have been his biggest fan, an admirer. The first superstar of Bollywood who did what no one else could. How could an actor be so versatile, I often ask myself!

From being a passionate lover to the most trustworthy friend, he was all at once. There was no one who didn’t love Kaka for his sheer persona.
The man wasn’t just a beautiful face but could express everything just through his eyes without uttering a single word, such was his skill.
Rajesh Khanna would have been 75 if he was alive today, but as Dr. Bhaskar K. Bannerjee (Amitabh Bachachan) said in Anand, “Anand Mara Nahi, Anand Marte Nahi.” It’s true in this case!
Here are few Iconic Rajesh Khanna dialogues that were written just for the real superstar!
It’s not just a dialogue but a life lesson! (My favourite)
“Babumushoi, zindagi aur maut upar waale ke haath hai … usse na toh aap badal sakte hai na main … hum sab to rangmanch ki kathputliyan hai jinki dor upar waale ki ungliyon mein bandhi hai” – Anand
We just can’t imagine anyone else saying this dialogue!
‘Pushpa… I hate tears’- Amar Prem
A fun movie with little-hidden lessons
“Kisi badi khushi ke intezaar mein hum yeh chote chote khushiyoon ke mauke kho dete hain” – Bawarchi

Kaka’s expression in this particular one.
“Maine Maut ko dekha to nahi par shayad woh bahut Khubsurat hai. Kambakht jo bhi usse milte hain, Jeena chod diya hain” – Namak Haram
Ultra
It’s all about zindagi!
“Main marne se pehle marna nahin chahta” – Safar
A film you can watch over and over again.
“Babu Moshai Zindagi badi honi chahiye lambi nahi.. Maut ke darr se agar zinda rehna chodhu, to maut kisse kehte hain? Babu Moshai jab tak zinda hoon, tab tak mara nahi hoon. Jab marr gaya, saala mein hi nahi. Toh phir darr kiss baat ka.” – Anand
If only someone could love like Rajesh Khanna.
“Pyar toh na bikne ki cheez hai, na khareedne ki cheez hai … pyar toh sirf karne ki cheez hai.”- Amar Deep

And Bollywood used this dialogue again and again.
“Ek chota sa zakhm bahut gehra daag ban sakta hai … aur ek choti si mulaqat jeevan bhar ka saath ban sakti hai.”- Aradhana
Man is the cruellest animal!
