Bollywood's beloved 'Kaka' Rajesh Khanna, who has not been keeping well, is now more than fine, his family told.

"He's more than fine. He is absolutely fine. Thank you for your concern," Rajesh Khanna's son-in-law, actor Akshay Kumar said journalists outside Khanna's bungalow Ashirwad in Bandra here.

Akshay's comment came after the 69-year-old veteran's manager Ashwin said that the actor had stopped food intake for the "last three or four days".

Worried fans lined up outside his house, and India's first superstar Rajesh Khanna gladly obliged by waving to them and showing them the 'V' for victory sign from the balcony of his house. He was dressed in a crisp white kurta, a stole and dark shades.

With a heavily bearded look, he appeared weak, but seemed to be in high spirits as he sported the same smile which in his heydays made millions of his female fans’ hearts skips a beat.

He was accompanied by his estranged wife Dimple Kapadia, who takes regular care of him these days, as well as Akshay, who is wedded to his elder daughter Twinkle.

While Twinkle is expecting her second baby, her younger sister Rinke has flown down to Mumbai to be with her ailing father.

The actor began his career with "Aakhri Khat" in 1966. He became a popular name with his work in movies like "Raaz", "Do Raaste" and "Aradhana" and was crowned "superstar" after he delivered 15 consecutive solo super hits.

In April, he was admitted to a hospital due to a brief health scare.

He freshly featured in a TV commercial for Havell's fan.

South Indian sex bomb Asin is becoming 'Khiladi' lover in Bollywood. Akshay Kumar who rocked Bollywood as 'Rowdy Rathore' is back to his 'Khiladi' ways and when he was in search of a partner he found Asin as his able match though he met stunningly beautiful Nargis Fakri. A close source tells "Yes, Asin has been signed for the film. In fact she would be starting the film's shoot immediately", says our well placed source attached to the film. Asin will be romancing once again with Akshay, after their 'Housefull-2' romance.

Asin has been lucky enough that she is doing repeated movies with top Bollywood stars like Salman Khan (London Dreams, Ready), Ajay Devgn (London Dreams, Bol Bachchan) and now Akshay Kumar.. An insider says, "Her track record speaks for itself", the source further adds, "She has already delivered three 100 crore hits (Ghajini, Ready, Housefull 2) and is course for fourth (Bol Bachchan).

This places her right next to Kareena Kapoor who has an equal number of centuries to her name (Ra.One, Bodyguard, Golmaal 3, 3 Idiots). Asin has earned her place at the top and now Khiladi 786 is a reward for that." Seems stars are smiling on Asin.

John’s, I must say, means a lot; not because it’s a Bike (though it helps) but because I know how much it means to him giving it to me.”

“It’s not exactly common to find two such Actors that have the kind of care & respect that both John & I share, it’s no secret that Actors find it hard to see eye to eye. Why he calls me Guruji I’ll never know, why I feel so protective & brotherly towards him he’ll never know. I’m glad you’re here, I’m proud of your struggles & what you’ve achieved, & I’m touched by your kindness today & always… I wish you a lifetime of happiness & a family of your own that loves you more than you have ever loved your Bikes (and we all know that’s a lot of Love ;o)”
