The Vinod Khanna Chat

VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 20:47:00 1997 IST):

Krushna: The new release is Himalayputra, starring my son Akshaye Khanna. I feature in the film as a police officer. The rest, please see the film and tell me...


duh? (Fri Mar 7 20:47:01 1997 IST):

Krushna, how much do you pay to see him onscreen, Multiply result by 200,000, the result by 30. Divide by 13 1/3 to allow for payments to director, distributor and other actors. Cut thick slab for I-T guys. Add quarter to resulting result. Viola, the answer to your question!


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 20:47:15 1997 IST):

MR VK What's your favorite role from all the movies you've done?


Soumya (Fri Mar 7 20:47:27 1997 IST):

namaste vinodji I'am a fan of yours . I have a question for you. Don't you think that you have changed the type of role as a social crusader in Mere Apne to masala Dhishum dhisum movies ?


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 20:47:53 1997 IST):

Rahul, This is Kavita. Are you "our" Rahul in Singapore?e


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 20:48:10 1997 IST):

Karthik: I think the most beautiful girl in the industry today would be the girl I'm introducing in my film. Her name is Anjala Zaveri.


Tasneem Khoja (Fri Mar 7 20:48:12 1997 IST):

Could you tell us something about your spiritual phase. Was your return to ordinary life due to diillusionment?


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 20:48:20 1997 IST):

your visuals in the song "tune kaise jado' are fantastic. are their your contribution or saroj khans or the directors?


cheers! (Fri Mar 7 20:48:24 1997 IST):

krishna murthy dundigalla: u dont have to be so loud and screamy pal!


Ravi (Fri Mar 7 20:48:41 1997 IST):

Vinodji, I jus want to ask you what was that pleased to join in Rajneesh mission?


Tasneem Khoja (Fri Mar 7 20:48:43 1997 IST):

What has Osho done to change your life?


rahul (Fri Mar 7 20:48:48 1997 IST):

Ooh thank you for the response sir, sorry about the repeat Q. I enjoyed watching Dayavan! Your favorite costar male and female?


aparna (Fri Mar 7 20:48:53 1997 IST):

kavita, I really think Vinod needs to take a leaf out of your book, and be responsive. This man is impossible to converse with. Will you be his mouth piece please? You are obviously his better half.


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 20:49:13 1997 IST):

Rahul: Mohabbat will release towards the end of 1997.


Soumya (Fri Mar 7 20:49:17 1997 IST):

namaste vinodji I'am a fan of yours . I have a question for you. Don't you think that you have changed the type of role as a social crusader in Mere Apne to masala Dhishum dhisum movies ?


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 20:50:05 1997 IST):

I WANT SEE THE MOVIEW WITH YOU AND SRIDEVI, ARE PLANING IN FEATURE


Moody Man (Fri Mar 7 20:50:05 1997 IST):

Mr Khanna, why is it that every Bollywood father tries to launch his son/daughter. Don't you think it would be much more better if your son tried to make it on himself?


duh? (Fri Mar 7 20:50:20 1997 IST):

That bit about the Zaveri is a big no-no, I thought. Considering your wife's also here. Not the done thing, what?


rahul (Fri Mar 7 20:50:50 1997 IST):

Kavita: Yes ammaji sorry, ammaji number 2 aap kaisi hainji?


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 20:51:13 1997 IST):

Aparna, I don't think Vinod will appreciate my being his mouthpeice at all. Why don't you just ask him your question again?


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 20:51:16 1997 IST):

Karthik: I watched Nayakan almost after we had finished most of Dayavan. I must confess Kamal Hassan was brilliant. But then, it was in his own language. Whereas I had to portray a South Indian.


aparna (Fri Mar 7 20:51:29 1997 IST):

vinod can you phullese tell akshaye and rahul that they are real hunks?


Soumya (Fri Mar 7 20:52:01 1997 IST):

Vinodji are you changing your role from a macho hero (like Sylvester Stallone) to a character artist ( like Al'paccino) ?


rahul (Fri Mar 7 20:52:19 1997 IST):

Vinodji, when is a movie with you in the lead releasing? What others movies is Akshaye signed for?


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 20:52:31 1997 IST):

I AM FAN OF YOUR'S, I AM AWAY FROM OUR COUNTRY(usa) , BUT I WANT SEE THE YOUR MOVIE IT WILL TAKE LOT OF DAYS TO RELEASE VIDEO TAPE,


karthik (Fri Mar 7 20:52:37 1997 IST):

Vinodji, Regarding the most beautiful girl, the answer is from the businessman. Very intelligent. Recently I saw the movie 'Dayavan'. OOOhhooo.. did you enjoy the lengthy kissing scene with madhuri dixit ? how many shots were taken and how much is shown to the public ?


Soumya (Fri Mar 7 20:52:52 1997 IST):

Vinodji are you changing your role from a macho hero (like Sylvester Stallone) to a character artist ( like Al'paccino) ?


Ravi (Fri Mar 7 20:53:14 1997 IST):

Vinodji, what was the pledge of the OSHO mission?


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 20:53:57 1997 IST):

Tasneem: Not at all. I returned to normal life because, for the first time in my life, I felt absolutely normal. There was no disillusionment. I am one of those fortunate beings to have travelled this spiritual journey with our great master, Osho.


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 20:54:16 1997 IST):

Rahul, Hi baby.Sorry, Putter no 1. So you cought the show.Great.I tried to e-mail you to tell you about the re-sceduled time, but you know how it is .Don't make promises you can't keep.


duh? (Fri Mar 7 20:54:18 1997 IST):

Which movies are you coming in now?


Soumya (Fri Mar 7 20:54:44 1997 IST):

Vinodji are you changing your role from a macho hero (like Sylvester Stallone) to a character artist ( like Al'paccino) ?


rahul (Fri Mar 7 20:55:02 1997 IST):

Sir, do you prefer living in India or the States?


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 20:55:04 1997 IST):

i saw your publicity at juhu, its mind blowing but you are not in there. i guess its fair, its your son's movie(intro)


N K Mishra (Fri Mar 7 20:55:21 1997 IST):

NAMASTE, VINODJI. HOW DO YOU RATE YOUR SON AS AN ACTOR? WHAT CHANCES DO YOU GIVE HIM FOR SURVIVING IN THIS KILLING FEILD?


Tasneem Khoja (Fri Mar 7 20:55:44 1997 IST):

Why have you stopped going abroad these days. Especially to AMerica


Ashish (Fri Mar 7 20:55:51 1997 IST):

You have been co-starred with almost all the top stars of their time like: Amitabh, Rajesh, Dharmendra etc. With whom did you enjoyed the most, and in which movie ?


aparna (Fri Mar 7 20:55:55 1997 IST):

This is a greta chat show - all questions and no answers. Osho was obviously a really cool guy, who perfected disseminating the art of non response. Its not my questions that I want answers to - its all those wonderful questions all th eothers are asking


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 20:56:33 1997 IST):

I WANT SEE THE MOVIEW WITH YOU AND SRIDEVI, ARE PLANING IN FEATURE


karthik (Fri Mar 7 20:56:38 1997 IST):

I would like to have your views on the film personalities from south india. Directors and artists who have caught your attention, those who have impressed you and personalities with whom you would love to work with. Thanks.


Soumya (Fri Mar 7 20:56:42 1997 IST):

Vinodji are you changing your role from a macho hero (like Sylvester Stallone) to a character artist ( like Al'paccino) ?


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 20:57:20 1997 IST):

Aparna, I think the problem is purely logistical... like 30wpm typing speed!


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 20:57:25 1997 IST):

Ravi and Tasneem: I joined Osho Rajneesh because I had this desire since I was a kid to meditate. Once I found my master, the journey became much easier. The goal of nirvana/moksha is simplified through the guidance of a master and his benevolence. What you realise is your self, which means you are absolutely at peace with yourself and you are the master of your own mind.


N K Mishra (Fri Mar 7 20:57:31 1997 IST):

Relax aparna. I am sure he will answer you. As also me!


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 20:57:48 1997 IST):

aparna i think thats rediff's fault, they are getting kinda slow and crodgy


cheers! (Fri Mar 7 20:57:50 1997 IST):

Vinod: any chances of a stint at Hollywood!!


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 20:58:13 1997 IST):

TO ALL I POSTED LOT OF QUESTIONS , I GOT ONLY ONE ANSWER


duh? (Fri Mar 7 20:58:40 1997 IST):

Would I bless you, Aparna. Osho didn't live, die and all that jazz, but all of Khan's bad guys kick bucket in royal style, xept when he plays bad guy himself. Then Kamalhasan getta credit. Remember Dayavan


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 20:59:04 1997 IST):

HI ABHEY I DONOT THINK THIS REDIFF FAULT


Ravi (Fri Mar 7 20:59:11 1997 IST):

Namaskaar Vinodji, Again questioning about Osho Ashram, What's that you do there and learn there? B'cos there are many controversies about that ashram?


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 20:59:13 1997 IST):

Rahul: Akshaye signed for another 10 films already. The film Dhaal is the film in which I have one of the leading roles. It will be releasing shortly.


aparna (Fri Mar 7 20:59:35 1997 IST):

I have a feeling Mr K isn't there - he left in ten seconds to be late to his next meeting. So all we get is questions with no answers. But kavita, it was a pleasure talking to you. I'll settle for the brighter Khanna any day. Bye Rediff - my first chat show, and i am disappointed. BYE


Ashish (Fri Mar 7 20:59:50 1997 IST):

Vinod Bhai, which are your best 3 movies in your view? Though I liked the most are : Mere Apne, Main Tulsi tere Angan ki, Dayavan, Lekin & Mera gaon mera desh.


Tahseen.K (Fri Mar 7 20:59:51 1997 IST):

Aparna: U R right. It seems Mr. Khanna likes EZ ?s like your best film, favorite movies star & ofcourse publicity related questions to his son and his forthcoming movies. ? with any substance are ignored.


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 21:00:02 1997 IST):

Abhay, What in the world is "crodgy"


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 21:00:08 1997 IST):

duh? kamal dont have guts to leave life for a search. he too scared and attached to security blanket.


Tasneem Khoja (Fri Mar 7 21:00:08 1997 IST):

Kavita, Rahul, Vinod (no Akshaye?) It's almost a family affair. Love to meet you all. Hi, Kavita


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:01:03 1997 IST):

Soumya: Don't compare me to Hollywood stars. I shall be working in roles from now on only if they are worth portraying. Otherwise, I shall only produce and direct films with my sons, Rahul and Akshaye.


rahul (Fri Mar 7 21:01:24 1997 IST):

Kavita: Ammaji kyan karo, papaji so busy with favorite son, bas rediff chat par talking karne ko milta hain. atleast yahan par stepsonly treatment nahin milta, hum to lucky, hummaara three questions answered ; )


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 21:01:38 1997 IST):

kavita:crodgy is sticking to old rules and being left behind and wasting peoples time. new mumbai oxford dic.


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 21:01:50 1997 IST):

HI VINOD GI, IN FEATURE ARE PLANING TO GO POLITICS, IF YES, IN WHICH ARE YOU JOINING,


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:01:56 1997 IST):

Cheers!: No


duh? (Fri Mar 7 21:02:46 1997 IST):

Remember Krushna, there is only one Answer. And the master of Vinod's mind isn't matter now


Ravi (Fri Mar 7 21:03:15 1997 IST):

Vinodji, I am impressed by the answer regarding the ashram, but one more thing the 'controversies' why so many? Rajneeshji having 100 Royale Royce???


Tasneem Khoja (Fri Mar 7 21:04:02 1997 IST):

You did not tell us why you left the ashramn


N K Mishra (Fri Mar 7 21:04:06 1997 IST):

Khannaji (I am being extra-polite in the hope that you will answer me): Whom do you rate the best actor/actoress? And please, for god's sake, don't tell me that it is Al pacino or somebody!


sss (Fri Mar 7 21:04:21 1997 IST):

Guys... after a point the questions go away.. so would you be kind enough to repost your questions? Thanks..


rahul (Fri Mar 7 21:04:58 1997 IST):

Sir, how was it working in Qurbani, Amar Akbar Anthony, Parvarish? Wow these are some good movie!


Soumya (Fri Mar 7 21:05:03 1997 IST):

vinodji one silly question , so far you have not been in any ad but why did you do the stupid ad of Baba Zarda ? Don't you think that it does not suit u ?


Tahseen.K (Fri Mar 7 21:05:27 1997 IST):

Kavita: I disagree with U. He is answering questions using a particular criteriea - promote his forthcoming movies and publicise Akshay. There is nothing wrong with this goal but let us have some serious discussion of the things that interest his fans.


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 21:05:36 1997 IST):

Tch, tch, tch, Rahul beta. Aisee baaten nahin kartay. Just think what will people think, huh?


duh? (Fri Mar 7 21:05:38 1997 IST):

Ninety-three, Vinod, ninety-three


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:05:46 1997 IST):

Ashish: You missed out films like Achanak, Amar Akbar Anthony, Khoon Pasina, Shakh...


cheers! (Fri Mar 7 21:05:59 1997 IST):

vinod: given a chance for a roll in holywood (take ur pick vinod) What would it have been? die hard, terminator, bridges of the madison county, braveheart, or bodyguard??


Ravi (Fri Mar 7 21:06:11 1997 IST):

Yes me too, same question || why did you leave the ashraam?


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 21:06:22 1997 IST):

IN FEATURE ARE YOU PLAINING TO MAKE ANY MOVIE WITH SRIDEVI,


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 21:07:13 1997 IST):

when did you last see h-putra?


duh? (Fri Mar 7 21:07:19 1997 IST):

Mr Khanna: Where did you get the finance for your film? Or is this your own moolah? What are the other projects in the pipeline?


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:07:19 1997 IST):

Soumya: The Baba ad was a big mistake. In fact, I had put my foot down about them not doing any paper publicity. But they have done it and I'm going to take them to court.


Hera-Pheri (Fri Mar 7 21:07:32 1997 IST):

Vinoji.. when do you think you will launch Rahul?


Ashish (Fri Mar 7 21:08:00 1997 IST):

Any plan for s stage show in USA ???


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 21:08:14 1997 IST):

Tahseen, I'd like husband dear to answer what interests those who care enough to log in to this show, but believe me it is mostly a logistical problem


cheers! (Fri Mar 7 21:08:29 1997 IST):

vinod! osho'szen influence. does it still hang over u. (not that there is anything wrong if it still does)


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 21:08:40 1997 IST):

HI, VINOD GI YOU HAVE AN E-MAIL IF YES GIVE ME YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS


Hera-Pheri (Fri Mar 7 21:08:42 1997 IST):

you are right Vinoji.. Anjala is beautiful.. will you be casting her in your next film too or will there be a different more beautiful girl?


Ravi (Fri Mar 7 21:09:00 1997 IST):

Kavitaji seems to be an active participant in all aspects!! Smart Chap!!


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:09:01 1997 IST):

Duh: My next project is a film which I'm directing with my son Akshaye again called Made in India. The money for my present film, Himalayputra, came from my own pocket and also some outside finance.


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 21:09:19 1997 IST):

IN FEATURE ARE YOU PLAINING TO MAKE ANY MOVIE WITH SRIDEVI,


Tasneem Khoja (Fri Mar 7 21:09:20 1997 IST):

How did you decide to get into direction, Vinod? I thought that was one field you did not want to touch with a barge pole?


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 21:09:35 1997 IST):

do you know today is mahashivratri and your film is called "himalay putra"???


Tahseen.K (Fri Mar 7 21:10:02 1997 IST):

Somya: Baba Zarda was not a stupid ad. Celeberities all over the world lend their name to different products\services - making extra money. Money making is never a stupid thing.


Nandini (Fri Mar 7 21:10:07 1997 IST):

Like Kavita said, why don't we discuss some masala stuff? Like which actress you rate best in India, and why? I think we will enjoy it more that way.


rahul (Fri Mar 7 21:10:08 1997 IST):

Who are the other stars in "Made in India" Who's directing?


aparna (Fri Mar 7 21:10:20 1997 IST):

My 11 year old daughter says "Ask him easy questions, and maybe he'll reply; Like how old are you?" So here goes: How old are you MrK? Kavita, this is surely something you can tell..... or can't you tell without checking?


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 21:11:01 1997 IST):

Ravi, Active participant in what aspects? I'm just having a great time. It's my first chat show.


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:11:06 1997 IST):

Hera-Pheri: Rahul, at the moment, is under contract with MTV. As soon as he's ready, I will launch him.


duh? (Fri Mar 7 21:11:32 1997 IST):

So what are you going to do if the film flops? Emotions aside, if you have to succeed as producer, you have to be a little hard-headed. As it is, there are rather unfavourable comparisons being made between you and your son, with Akshaye getting the rough end of the stick.


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 21:11:36 1997 IST):

HI, VINOD GI AKSHAYE IS PLANING TO ACT ANY TELUGU MOVIES IN FEATURES.


Hera-Pheri (Fri Mar 7 21:12:04 1997 IST):

Vinodji.. Rahul is slightly unconventional in his looks unlike Akshaye.. Do you think he will click well with the audience?


Kavita_ (Fri Mar 7 21:12:19 1997 IST):

Aparna, He's a fabulous fifty.


Tanveer (Fri Mar 7 21:12:47 1997 IST):

Khannasaab, how would you define peace of mind? Do you have it?


Krushna Murthy Dundigalla (Fri Mar 7 21:12:51 1997 IST):

HI VINOD, IN FEATURE ARE YOU PLAINING TO MAKE ANY MOVIE WITH SRIDEVI,


Nandini (Fri Mar 7 21:12:55 1997 IST):

MR KHANNA, WE ARE STILL WAITING. COULD YOU PLS TELL US WHO YOU T6HINK IS THE BEST ACTRESS AROUND? YOU SHY WITH KAVITA AROUND OR WHAT?


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:13:01 1997 IST):

aparna: I have just turned 50 and had a ball every year.


Ravi (Fri Mar 7 21:13:15 1997 IST):

Kavita, I jus wanna know why aparna is back of you?


rahul (Fri Mar 7 21:13:25 1997 IST):

Aparna: his age doesn't matter, he still is hunkier than all the pretty boys or not so pretty boys of today. Vinodji: is Zooni in production or has it been shelved?


Hera-Pheri (Fri Mar 7 21:13:55 1997 IST):

Vinodji.. what do you think about the press who made such a big thing about you and Amitabh vying for the same position? were you?


aparna (Fri Mar 7 21:13:58 1997 IST):

Kavita, fabulous fifty is a great age - that's when you have the morning after without having had the ni9ght before!!!


VINOD KHANNA (Fri Mar 7 21:14:20 1997 IST):

All right, Nandini, according to me, the best actress we have is Rekha. She has been around for almost 25 years and is still going strong.


Abhay (Fri Mar 7 21:14:22 1997 IST):

hera-pheri, was anyone more unconventional then amitabh/ for gods sake stop asking stupid q's


Tahseen.K (Fri Mar 7 21:14:23 1997 IST):

Mr. Khanna: Why do you think Baba Zarda was a mistake ? Please elaboarte.


Shruti (Fri Mar 7 21:14:29 1997 IST):

I think your son Rahul is a dream. He's a much better looker compared to Akshaye? So why didn't you think of launching him first?


rahul (Fri Mar 7 21:14:57 1997 IST):

kavita: ammaji why wasn't I invited? : (


Nandini (Fri Mar 7 21:15:00 1997 IST):

WHO DO YOU THINK IS THE BESTY ACTOR? PLS TELL US.


cheers! (Fri Mar 7 21:15:08 1997 IST):

vinod: with so many of us swooning over u has it made u into narcissist? believe me i have seen cases in bollywood!!
