A leading television channel recently approached this popular yesteryear star to participate in their flagship reality show, and the actor instantly agreed. They were offering him a princely sum, and it was a chance for him to pop back into public consciousness. After all, the show involved a dozen odd celebrities spending 12 weeks inside a closed home fitted with 50 cameras.

The actor is estranged from his beautiful wife, and maintains a cordial but distant relationship with his daughters. Industry insiders say his elder daughter was mortified when she learnt her father had agreed to appear on the show. She tried talking him out of it, but he refused. The daughter urged her husband, a current Bollywood star, to drill some sense into her father’s head. He’s believed to have offered his father-in-law double what the channel was paying him to turn down the offer.

Earlier this week, when the television show went on air, the former superstar did not appear as one of the participants. Who says you can’t buy peace?
