Bharat Bhushan, Rajendra Kumar and Rajesh Khanna made all three stars, then snatched the fame, was this famous bungalow of Bollywood really 'cursed'? 🤨
There are many stories hidden behind the glow of Bollywood, which look no less than a film script. There is such a story of that mysterious bungalow, which was once considered a symbol of success, but over time people started calling it 'cursed'.
This story begins with Bharat Bhushan, who were counted among the big stars of the 1950s. When they bought this bungalow, believe luck held their hand. Movies like 'Baiju Bawra' and 'Mirza Ghalib' took them to the peak of stardom. 💫
But this height didn't last long. Slowly their movies started floping, work fell down and they finally drowned in financial shortage. The bungalow which was once a witness of their success, now it has become the beginning of penalty in the eyes of people.
Again the year 1960, Bharat Bhushan sold this bungalow to Rajendra Kumar for about 60,000 rupees. When this bungalow reached Rajendra Kumar's hands. They named it after their daughter 'Dimple'. Everything was like a dream in the beginning - his career reached new heights with movies like 'Mother India' and 'Dhool Ka Phool'. 👍
But in a few years luck took the turn. Their speed of success began to stop and economic troubles began to rise. Once again, things of 'strange coincidence' started happening with this bungalow. 🤔
In 1969, Rajendra Kumar sold the same bungalow to Rajesh Khanna for around 3.5 lakh rupees. When superstar Rajesh Khanna bought this bungalow, he named it 'Ashirwad'. As soon as I stepped into this house, history was repeated - Rajesh Khanna made record of 15 consecutive superhit movies. He became the first superstar of Hindi cinema. There was a charm on every side, their name on every tongue. 🎞️
But then the same story... Time changed, circumstances changed. Slowly the magic of their movies began to diminish. The walls which were once witness to success, now become witness to the slope of their career. The media and film aisle started to intensify that the faster this bungalow elevates the stars, the faster it brings them down. 📉
What is true - is it merely a coincidence or really a mystery - perhaps no one has the answer to this even today. But certainly this bungalow is involved in those stories of Bollywood, which describe the mystery, luck and the game of time together. ⏳
It's not just a home, but a winning tale of the ups and downs of three superstars - where dreams reside and shattered.
