Home Entertainment This actor gave 17 back-to-back hits, Kishore Kumar was his voice in most of the films, name was…, not Amitabh Bachchan, Dilip Kumar, Dev Anand, Vinod Khanna This actor gave 17 back-to-back hits, Kishore Kumar was his voice in most of the films, name was…, not Amitabh Bachchan, Dilip Kumar, Dev Anand, Vinod Khanna Even decades after his stardom, no one has come close to breaking Kaka's golden streak at the box office. From Dilip Kumar to Amitabh Bachchan, Bollywood has seen many legends. But he was the first to be called a superstar. When the actor appeared on screen, audiences were spellbound. His delivery of lines like 'Babu Moshai, zindagi aur maut upar wale ke haath mein hai' from Anand still echoes through cinema history. People didn't just watch him, they felt him. Yes, we are talking about Rajesh Khanna! His presence was electric. His dialogue delivery, full of rhythm and emotion, created a unique connection with viewers. Fans called him Kaka, with love, and rightly so. Rajesh Khanna's 17 consecutive hit films He delivered 17 consecutive hit films, a record that no actor has touched to this day. At a time when stardom depended only on talent and public love, Kaka stood tall without the crutches of aggressive PR. And it wasn't just him. His films featured the timeless voice of Kishore Kumar, perfectly complementing Rajesh Khanna's romantic aura. Songs from Amar Prem, Kati Patang, and Mere Jeevan Saathi still rule retro playlists. Who was the man behind the star? Born on 29 December 1942 in Amritsar, Rajesh Khanna rose to unmatched heights but also saw career lows. Yet, he never gave up. He married actress Dimple Kapadia when she was just 16 and a fan. While their relationship faced rough patches, he remained in the public eye, acting, producing under RK Films, and later entering politics as a Congress MP. Those who knew him during his political career remember him as yaaron ka yaar, always ready to help, never saying no. Why is 'Anand' still considered his masterpiece? In Anand (1971), he portrayed a man living joyfully despite a terminal illness. That role didn't just touch hearts, it immortalised him. Rajesh Khanna passed away on 18 July 2012 after a long illness. But even in absence, his work continues to inspire. His charm, his smile, his head-tilt, they remain iconic, making Kaka an eternal star of Indian cinema.
