From Aradhana Anand Amar Prem to Namak Haraam Avishkaar The Train among others Rajesh Khanna delivered superhit movies that the industry still remembers. Fondly called Kaka Rajesh’s professional life always remained in the headlines. However it was his personal life that made fans curious too. Rajesh Khannas controversial love affair was known to all. From marrying Dimple Kapadia at a young age to having a relationship with Tina Munim (now Tina Ambani) Kakas love life was famous in every state of the nation. However do you know that there was a person in Kakas life who though not married to him remained with him just like a wife? Yes the person here in discussion is veteran actress Anju Mahendru. Rajesh and Anju lived together like husband and wife for a long time which is today called live-in. Rajesh Khannas co-star Mumtaz revealed this secret relationship of Rajesh Khanna. In a podcast Mumtaz clearly stated that Rajesh and Anju did not consider themselves less than husband and wife. Mumtaz said Rajesh and Anju lived in the same house like husband and wife they used to get up and sit together eat and drink together — their relationship was no less than that of a husband and wife.
