How is Rajesh Khanna a top taxpayer?
He's even ahead of Amitabh Bachchan
As he is not one of the highest earning people, it comes as a big surprise that Rajesh Khanna was among the top five taxpayers, even ahead of Amitabh Bachchan.
Khanna reportedly paid 6.87 crores as tax and was ranked fifth in the list while Big B paid 1.25 crores.
How did Khanna manage to pay so much when his current earnings do not match Bachchan’s?
Apparently, Rajesh Khanna was on the list of income tax defaulters a few years back. He even had to move out of Aashirwad, his Carter Road bungalow, as the property was ‘attached’.
According to sources Khanna has now cleared all his tax liabilities till September 2008.
He has some properties on Carter Road and Madh Island and a couple of them in Chennai. He is also a partner at Filmalaya studios. Khanna sold some of these properties and thus entered the list of top tax payers.

Rajesh Khanna drove into the film industry in the mid 60s in an Impala. He came from a very wealhy family to begin with, unlike most of the actors those days who struggled and lived in chawls before they made it.

There are romantic leading men and there are romantic leading men, but very few have taken cinematic love to legendary heights. While there might be other icons but Super-Star- Actor Rajesh Khanna after four decades, he is the ultimate true romantic legend.
