Advani: Dignity, Not Money, Post-Khanna
14 Feb
Summary
- Anita Advani seeks dignity, not wealth, post-Rajesh Khanna's death.
- Advani claims she was never shown Rajesh Khanna's will.
- A book about her relationship reportedly mistook Khanna's name.
Anita Advani, who had a 12-year relationship with the late actor Rajesh Khanna, has broken her silence regarding the years following his death in 2012. Her ongoing battle, she asserts, is primarily for dignity and self-respect, rather than financial gain. Advani maintains that she has never been privy to the contents of Khanna's will, even though she was aware it detailed provisions for multiple individuals.
Further complicating matters, Advani addressed issues with a book detailing her relationship with Khanna. She alleged that parts of the introduction were omitted and promotional efforts were mishandled. A particularly awkward error occurred when the actor's name was reportedly misspelled as 'Rakesh Khanna' in the book, an incident attributed to an intern and generative AI by the publisher.
Advani's persistent assertion is that her legal pursuits are rooted in a desire for acknowledgment and a dignified existence, emphasizing that wealth is not her objective. Her statements bring renewed focus to the unresolved questions surrounding Rajesh Khanna's estate and legacy over a decade after his passing.
