Rajesh Khanna's Secret Party

The book ‘Rajesh Khanna: Kuch Toh Log Kahenge’ mentions this secret party. The book says that Rajesh Khanna threw a secret party in Khandala. Only his staff, manager, Dimple Kapadia's family, and a few close friends knew about it. The truth was, he was planning to marry Dimple. He made sure Anju Mahendru had no clue about this party. However, Anju somehow got wind of it. She went to Rajesh Khanna's house with her mother. She asked his personal assistant, Prashant, about the party, but he flatly denied knowing where Rajesh Khanna was. Later, Anju left for Khandala herself. But, she had to return empty-handed because Rajesh Khanna had changed the party's location at the very last minute. After this, Anju was furious. The book mentions that Prashant later revealed that Rajesh Khanna had finally decided to leave Anju and marry Dimple Kapadia. Anju then sent a message to Rajesh Khanna through his driver, and after that, their relationship was over forever. The book claims Anju's life was completely ruined. She was in two more relationships after this, but neither of them worked out. Anju is now 80 years old and has never married.
