Whilst coming back from work , as usual I switched on the FM and all the stations were already in RIP Vinod Khanna mode . Was wondering whether I thank them for their condolences to the megastar or slam them for making use of any sad or happening instance into a TRP opportunity, nonetheless I could traverse my thoughts backwards into one of the most handsome men of Bollywood Vinod Khanna's beautiful journey in Indian Cinema.
From Mere Apne to Dabangg via milestones of Mukaddar ka Sikandar , Qurbani , Amar Akbar Anthony, Chandni , HeraPheri and so many memorable roles. I still remember watching MKS in its 50th week after release, Qurbani running to full house after 10 years of re-release. Which superstar can achieve it today ?
Khanna left all the glory and instead of continuing as the 2nd best of all times,moved to the US of A to be disciple of OSHO . It’s extremely difficult to leave the pole position and keep aside everything to choose a path of mental peace and what one believes in. No normal mortal would have that kind of courage except for the real Punjab da Putar Vinod Khanna.
Vinod Khanna came back with a bang through many hits to his name in second innings , consistently won the Loksabha seat from Gurdaspur and as MoS for foreign affairs used his films to bridge the gap with our super active neighbours . It was one of the lifestyles which only Vinod Khanna could lived and he lived it in style.
RIP Vinod Khanna !! The fans are gonna miss you .
