Mumbai: If you thought ‘Bigg Boss 3’ had almost run out of its steam with the exit of unruly Kamaal Rashid Khan, then there’s news you ought to know. Yesteryears’ superstar Rajesh Khanna is all set to walk into the ‘Bigg Boss’ house and create flutter (understatement) with his antics in the third season of the popular reality show.According to reports, Rajesh Khanna will enter the show on a wildcard within the next two weeks. It is believed that he was a strong contender when the channel was finalising the contestants a few days before the show was about to be aired but he couldn’t be confirmed. “The main problem with Mr Khanna was he wanted permission to be allowed to drink within the house. We couldn’t allow him that,” says a source.
With KRKs sudden ouster from the show, the channel is once again negotiating with Rajesh Khanna and it seems that this time the actor is willing to give up on his hard drinks till he is inside the house, for, he is said to really interested in being a part of the same.
“We’ve opened up negotiations with Mr Khanna and he has agreed to be on the show. We will be introducing him in the show as a wildcard entry in the next two weeks,” adds the source.
Rumour has it that Khanna will be paid the highest amount ever given to a contestant on the show. While the actor is more than happy about his inclusion, it is believed that his son-in-law, Akshay Kumar is fuming with Pa-in-law’s choice, as he doesn’t want Khanna to make his life public.
Here’s hoping that that drama on the show will prove to be more intoxicating for the actor and he won’t miss is drinks after all. What say Mr Khanna?
