Vinod Khanna's son Sakshi in Milan Luthria's next?

Kunal M Shah (MID-DAY; May 23, 2013)

While two of veteran actor Vinod Khanna's sons joined the industry years ago, sources say Vinod's third son Sakshi is all set to make his B-Town debut.

According to sources Milan Luthria will be launching the Khanna scion in a romantic film produced by him.

Our source says, "Ever since the word has spread that Khanna's youngest son Sakshi is open to making his acting debut, many bigwigs of the industry have tried to rope him in for their projects. In fact Mukesh Bhatt had also approached him for Aashiqui 2, but for some reason it did not work out. Milan, who shares a great relationship with the Khannas was impressed by Sakshi while he was assisting him on the sets of Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Again." The film is said to go on the floors by August-end and Milan is believed to be quite kicked about it.

"A new girl too is being launched with the film. Also, Milan will finally start his production house with the film and a major announcement is on the cards." Milan, however, refused to comment.

Khanna's older sons, Akshaye and Rahul have not been able to really make it big in Bollywood. Now it's Sakshi's turn to prove his mettle.

Sakshi's run-in with the law

Sakshi was in the news a couple of years ago when his name cropped up in a raided rave party case. Cops had pounced on a rave party in Khalapur outside Mumbai and confirmed that Sakshi was one of the 300 youngsters detained at the event.
