These were the 10 producers who formed a team to select new talent as an answer to escalating salaries for the established stars. Rajesh's first movie was Chetan Anand's "Aakhri Khat" released in 1966. Inspite of a great director and some beautiful music, the film was a commercial failure. But things changed when in 1969, Shakti Samanta's "Aradhana" was released. The movie with its beautiful music and strong performance by Sharmila Tagore created history. In Rajesh Khanna, a star was born. And for the next few years, he couldn't do anything wrong. Rajesh made nearly 130 movies in his professional career. One of our Forum members, Debjyoti, gave me this idea to start a thread on the songs of his albums. By happy coincidence I have CDs of almost all of his movie albums.

Swarapriya,
Another great thread on RK, this time Rajesh Khanna. He was a craze specially for his female fan. I remember reading in some magazine one of his fans made his portrait with her blood. Like Raj Kapoor and Mukesh Rajesh Khanna and Kishore Kumar were synonymous. Looking forward to more u/l on this thread but plesae don't ignore the Raj Kapoor thread. R a m e s h
