Heartfelt condolences to the family & fans of the legendary actor
Zindagi to bewafa hai ek din thukrayegi...
After making his debut in 1968, Khanna was first seen in small second lead roles or negative roles. In 1982, at the peak of his film career, Khanna decided to quit the film industry briefly to follow his spiritual guru Osho Rajneesh.
After a five-year hiatus, he returned to the Hindi film industry to give hit films Insaaf and Satyamev Jayate.
Khanna then joined politics in 1997 and got elected from Gurdaspur on a BJP ticket in the next year's Lok Sabha poll.
Later, during the time of the Atal Bihari Vajpayee government he became Union minister for culture and tourism in 2002. He also became a minister of state in the Ministry of External Affairs. Khanna lost the 2009 election, but was elected again from Gurdaspur in 2014.
Vinod Khanna followed Osho Rajneesh to Oregon, US, in the early eighties. Reports say he worked the gardens at the Rajneeshpuram ashram and sang to the flowers every morning. He rarely visited India during this period.
