Rajesh Khanna was an enormously Bollywood popular leading man in the mid-sixties to mid-seventies, generally considered to have the most insane fangirls in the business in his heyday. Although a good-looking man in the suave, dapper mold of Dev Anand, his characters usually tended to be simple, saintly souls from the countryside, preaching traditional Indian values in the face of greed, crime and corruption. He is best remembered for his frequent pairings with the bubbly actress Mumtaz, including Apna Desh.
