Anita Advani recalls falling for Rajesh Khanna as a teenager, says the superstar left a deep impression on her heart: ‘I couldn't accept another man touching me'

Rajesh Khanna's relationship with Anita Advani is no secret to the public. Over the years, Anita has spoken candidly in interviews about her bond with the late superstar, and most recently chronicled their dynamic in a book. Now, in a heartfelt conversation on REEL Meet REAL, Anita revisited how it all began, back when she was just a teenager. 'I was a teenager when I first met him, and it was a whirlwind romance between us at a very young age. He left such a deep impression on my heart and mind that no one else ever appealed to me. Then destiny played its part, we kept bumping into each other. And finally, when everyone in his life had gone, when there was no one from his family around, we reconnected. After that, we lived together for about 12 years,' she said.

'I couldn't have asked for a better man than him. He was one in a million. The thing is, I was in a relationship with him at a very impressionable age. I came from a conservative family, so I thought he was my everything, When I grew up, people pursued me, but I couldn't see anyone else. I was just caught up in that comparison. I couldn't accept another man touching me, it became a mental block,' she shared. Anita also recently recalled the pain of being excluded from Rajesh Khanna's chautha (a traditional prayer meeting held on the fourth day after someone's passing), a moment that added to the emotional weight of their history. 'They had bouncers stationed there to stop me from coming in, I learned this from friends. When I told them I planned to go, they warned me I wouldn't be allowed inside. Still, they said, 'If anything happens, we're here for you.' But I was stunned and asked, 'Why all this?' Some of my staff and close friends encouraged me to go, even suggested I carry a camera to record what they do. But I thought, how can I do such a thing on such a solemn day? So I didn't go. I held my own chautha for him alone at a temple,' she revealed.

F1 India Box Office Update: Brad Pitt's movie stays in race to smash Rs 100 crore net; Emerges biggest hit of Summer 2025 in the country

F1, directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Brad Pitt is having a dream run at the box office. It has been 56 days of the movie running in India, and the performance doesn't cease to amaze. A movie that was expected to do roughly Rs 20 crore net at the Indian box office in its full run, will end up with collections of around or little over Rs 100 crore, thanks to its exceptional word of mouth. After 8 weeks, F1 's collections stand at Rs 96.60 crore net (Rs 118.70 crore gross), and there's steam still left. The Week Wise India Box Office Collections Of F1 Are As Under Week India Net Box Office 1 Rs 34.50 crore 2 Rs 24.90 crore 3 Rs 13.40 crore 4 Rs 10.90 crore 5 Rs 4.30 crore 6 Rs 4.10 crore 7 Rs 3.30 crore 8 Rs 1.20 crore Total Rs 96.60 crore net in 8 weeks F1 Braves Competition From Biggies In India F1 has braved competition from Sitaare Zameen Par, Maa, Metro In Dino, Jurassic World: Rebirth, Maalik, Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, Superman, Saiyaara, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Mahavatar Narsimha, Kingdom, Dhadak 2, Son Of Sardaar 2, War 2, Coolie, Freakier Friday, Weapons and a bunch of other movies, to reach where it is. With no new big releases this week, F1 should get more screens to perform in. The collections in week 9 should most likely be higher than week 8. Then, the buzz around its digital premiere should most likely lift it to a lifetime of Rs 100 crore net. F1 Continues Crushing Global Predictions Each Week At the global box office too, F1 has been crushing it, showing great holds each week. All projections went wrong in the opening weekend, and they continue going wrong even now, each week. The film gears up for a finish to the north of USD 600 million worldwide. It will be a photo-finish with Superman. The difference between both movies is that F1's international collections are higher while Superman's domestic collections are higher. F1 In Theatres

Saare Jahan Se Accha shows a human, real spy, away from the flashy style of James Bond: Pratik Gandhi

For Pratik Gandhi, his new show, Saare Jahan Se Accha is more spy drama than a thriller. "That drama is a big part because we are dealing with complex human emotions," he tells us, explaining what separates the Netflix series from the overpopulated genre of spy thrillers in vogue today. Pratik spoke to HT along with the show's creators about its unique space and approach. Pratik Gandhi plays a spy in Netflix's Saare Jahan Se Accha. Keeping it real Saare Jahan Se Accha tells the story of a RAW agent in Pakistan in the 1970s, whose mission is to prevent the nation from becoming an atomic power. Based on true events, the show gives up the swanky Bond and Pathaan-style narrative of espionage for one grounded in realism. The show's creator, Gaurav Arora, explains, "The hyper-realistic style is to show a very stylish spy with good-looking women and in exotic locations. My attempt was to keep it very real and to show their pain and pressure." What separates Saare Jahan Se Accha from other spy dramas is how it treats the 'enemy'. Its depiction of ISI agents and Pakistani Army officials as humans instead of one-dimensional characters has been noted. Sejal Shah, the producer, explains, 'The idea was not to make a spectacle but to tell a story driven by the characters. And that is what we have here, characters who have a story - and both sides have stories.' Not James Bond Pratik plays Vishnu in the show, an Indian spy embedded in Pakistan. Talking about playing an everyman spy, he says, "James Bond was my first-ever introduction to spies. I always felt that anyone who plays a spy on screen will be a very flashy, flamboyant guy, very charming. He can do anything. He is almost a superhero. That was my initial understanding in my growing-up days. But I wouldn't call this series a spy thriller. It is a spy drama. That makes it absolutely fresh for me as an actor." Saare Jahan Se Accha also stars Sunny Hinduja, Tillotama Shome, Anup Soni, Kritika Kamra, and Suhail Nayyar. The show is currently streaming on Netflix.
