Bollywood's first superstar
Rajesh Khanna got a "dignified"
funeral, and one which he truly
"deserved", says his actor son-in-
law Akshay Kumar, who always
wanted to witness the late
actor's superstardom.
"I always wanted to witness my
father-in-law's superstar
stardom during his hey days.
Thanks to you all, I did, giving
him a dignified funeral that he
deserved. I appreciate your
thoughts and prayers," tweeted
Akshay.
Rajesh Khanna breathed his last
Wednesday morning following a
liver infection. He was 69.
The news of his death caused a
frenzy among friends, fans,
family members and the film
fraternity, who turned up in
huge numbers to pay their last
respects to the star during his
funeral on Thursday.
"Thank you everyone for your
kindness and sympathy during
our time of loss. Your
thoughtfulness at this time of
great sorrow is truly a comfort.
Knowing you all are here helps,"
Akshay tweeted for all the fans,
who expressed support and
sympathy to the family.
Akshay is married to Rajesh
Khanna's elder daughter Twinkle,
who is expecting her second
child. Their first child, nine-year-
old son Aarav, performed the last
rites of his grandfather at the
Vile Parle crematorium.

Even though i hate his philandering nature, but he did a lot for his wife family and behaved like an ideal son in law during the time of crisis !!😊

And yes Rajesh Khanna did get the deserved funeral after all he was THE STAR 😛
