Rajesh Khanna to enter 'Bigg Boss 3'

Rajesh Khanna will be the latest celebrity to take part in Bigg Boss 3 despite a number of issues.

The Times of India reports that the veteran actor will be introduced into the show within the next two weeks after Kamaal R Khan was evicted on Wednesday.

However, there were delays getting Khanna to agree to entering the house after producers told him that he would not be allowed to drink alcohol on TV.

"The main problem with Mr Khanna was he wanted permission to be allowed to drink within the house. We couldn't allow him that," a Bigg Boss source said.

"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."

It has been suggested that Khanna will be paid the highest amount ever given to a celebrity contestant on Bigg Boss.
