Rakshu is like my younger sister’

The much-married Tarun Khanna refutes allegations of a growing proximity with Rakshanda Khan.

Things are going great for Tarun Khanna, the actor last seen in 'Kuch Apne, Kuch Paraye' (Sahara One); a show that he begged out of! "I realised that the track, which was so beautiful when it was narrated to me, was going haywire. I didn't see the point in doing it just to be seen on screen," says Tarun, who has since moved onto the big screen! "I have two movies coming up.

One is 'Do Aur Do Paanch', which also has Salman Khan and Arbaaz Khan doing cameos. I play a suave conman in this. I am also playing a villain in an untitled film. It's a futuristic film combining mythology with the present times.

The film will use animation and will see me in different get-ups including a bald one!" says Tarun. He adds, "I love to play a baddie; it gives a lot of scope for acting."

Apparently, Tarun is enjoying a close friendship with actor Rakshanda Khan with whom he is often spotted.

Tarun denies it vehemently and says, "Rakshu and I are very dear friends. She stays just two blocks away from my place and comes home very often. If we have to go to some event, we even go together. But please, I'm certainly not having an affair with her. I'm a happily married man and love my wife too much to go down the affairs' alley."

He stresses, "Rakshu is like my younger sister and is more close to my wife than she is to me. My wife and Rakshu are going to fall off with laughter reading this!" ends Tarun.
