Meenakshi Seshadri on trading ‘dirty jokes’ with Vinod Khanna

In a recent conversation with Lehren Retro, Meenakshi Seshadri opened up about her bond with the late actor. She said, “Vinod Khanna and I had a great equation. My dad loved visiting the sets when I was shooting with him. During lunchtime, we used to trade dirty jokes.” She continued, “Vinod Khanna was a chill guy. He was at the top of his career. He used to go to the ashram and would come back and shoot.”

In a past conversation with Filmfare, the actress revealed, “He’d listen to Osho Rajneesh’s tapes those days. He’d encourage me to listen to them, but never forced me. Later, he married Kavita Daftary. I attended some of their parties, something rare for me as I never socialised.” She added, “I’m not claiming that Vinodji was a great friend. But he was a gracious and inclusive person. Vinodji brought out something in the Seshadris. My dad loved attending my shoots when I was filming with Vinodji. We three would share naughty jokes. Others would wonder what we were laughing at. I shared a fun relationship with my father where we shared jokes, played word games, etc. With Vinodji, it was an extension of that. I wasn’t comfortable with anyone else showing this side of my personality.”
