Apparently, TV channel Colors had approached the actor before the show began. But Khanna agreed to be a part of the show on condition that he be allowed to drink inside the House. But things have changed now.
With Kamaal R Khan's inglorious booting-out on Wednesday, the channel is once again negotiating with Rajesh Khanna. This time Rajesh Khanna says he's willing to give up on his hard drinks till he is inside the house because, apparently, he finds the friction, tension and drama on theshow far more intoxicating than the drinks.
"We've opened up negotiations with Mr Khanna and he has agreed to be on the show. We will be introducing him in the show as a wildcard entry in the next two weeks," adds the source.
Rumour has it that Khanna will be paid the highest amount ever given to a contestant on the show. While the actor is more than happy about his inclusion, it is believed that his son-in-law, Akshay Kumar is fuming with Pa-in-law's choice, as he doesn't want Khanna to make his life public.
