Raj Kiran of “Karz,” “Arth,” and “Teri Meherbaniyan” vanished mysteriously.

Raj Kiran made his acting debut in the 1975 film Kaagaz Ki Nao, directed by BR Ishara and starring Sarika.

In the years since, the actor has appeared in a number of critically acclaimed films, including Karz (1980), Arth (1982), Raaj Tilak (1984), Teri Meherbaniyan (1985), and Ek Naya Rishta (1988). (1987). (1986). (1988).

However, after the 1980s, the number of film roles offered to him steadily decreased.

By the late 1990s, Raj Kiran had lost his job as the film industry favoured younger, more commercially successful actors.

Audience members may not have noticed or thought about the actor, but his colleagues in the film industry, including Rishi Kapoor and Deepti Naval, kept looking for him and wondering what had happened to him.

Finally, on her Facebook page in 2011, Deepti wrote, “Looking for a friend from the film world his name is Raj Kiran — we have no news of him — last heard he was driving a cab in New York City if anyone has a clue, please tell…” According to Deepti’s latest update: “Wanted: Raj Kiran, a film industry friend we haven’t heard from in a long time.”

Soon after, Rishi travelled to the United States to meet Raj’s older brother, Govind Mehtani. Rishi learned at this gathering that his friend and co-star from the TV show Karz had been admitted to an Atlanta mental hospital.

“I was beginning to worry about Raj and couldn’t find him anywhere,” Rishi previously stated in an interview with ETimes. This is a question I’ve been thinking about for a long time, and it keeps coming back to me. Then word spread that Raj had died, and everyone took notice. As a result, I was extremely concerned. It’s inexplicable that a former coworker, with whom I shared many memorable laughs, would mysteriously vanish. I decided to contact Raj’s older brother, Govind Mehtani, and ask him some questions about Raj.

“When Govind told me Raj was still alive,” Rishi said through tears, “it felt like a burden had been lifted off my shoulders.” However, his ongoing health issues forced him to spend his days in an Atlanta hospital.

Furthermore, he stated, “Yes, it appears that he supervises his own treatment by working within the institution.” A once-famous actor must be in pain right now. All that matters to me is that he is still alive. Few people could compete with Raj’s knowledge and wit. When we were working together, it was always entertaining to see how we would square off against each other in our battles of wits. Despite the fact that he is nearly two decades my junior, we have always gotten along swimmingly. I long to see him again.”

Raj reportedly suffered a mental breakdown following the departures of his wife and son, as well as the negative impact on his health caused by a lack of film offers.

Rishi asked his brother Raj for his phone number, but Raj’s brother didn’t have it for some reason. Rishi had specifically requested it in this case. “I wanted to talk to Raj and visit him in Atlanta,” the actor explained. Unfortunately, I could not obtain his contact information. I’m sure I’ll pay him a visit and try to persuade him to return to his own home. Despite his lengthy unemployment, Raj has proven to be an astute investor. This meant he didn’t have any financial issues as a result of his illness.

Rishi intended to find Raj and reintroduce him to the Bollywood scene. “I hope he knows how much we appreciate him,” he says. We want him to reclaim his rightful place. I’ll do everything I can to help him get back on his feet in Bollywood.

Mahesh Bhatt, the director of the film Arth, allegedly kept actor Raj in an asylum in Byculla after the actor had a mental breakdown in Bengaluru.

Bhatt revealed that Raj had visited Puttaparthi, where he “apparently tried to scale a wall and became violent, and was accused of attempting to assassinate Sai Baba.”

“I went there to meet him,” he explained. I later discovered that his brother was the one who brought him to America.

The story took an unexpected turn when Raj’s wife and daughter initially denied that he had sought asylum in the United States.

His daughter complained to the website in 2012 that she and her mother were being harassed by the media because of her father’s disappearance. She claimed that she and her mother could no longer bear the constant press scrutiny.

“It hurts her deeply to feel all those things again that she has been trying to suppress,” she said. Remembering those feelings is a painful experience for her.” My mother and I don’t go a day without remembering and talking about my father. We have assigned a detective to investigate this matter and have also requested assistance from the NYPD. But where were they when we needed them to help us find him? What were they doing before they pretended to be worried? Is there anything that can be done to help my mother, who has been suffering from mental anguish for the past 15 years?

Raj’s daughter thought it was very sweet that Rishi still inquired about him and referred to him as “friend” after all these years.

She had also asked Rishi to assist the family in their search for Raj Kiran.

Despite the fact that Raj was never found, Rishi took to Twitter again in 2015 in an attempt to elicit any leads anyone might have regarding the actor’s whereabouts.

When a fan inquired about Raj Kiran, Rishi simply stated, “No news, sir!”

Anyone and everyone is welcome to contribute.

Please.

I put forth my best effort. They don’t discuss the family business.

Rishi Kapoor died of leukaemia in 2020, as predicted.

And one of the most well-known voices, who occasionally looked for his friend and co-star, was no longer present.

Nobody knows what happened to Raj Kiran, and his disappearance remains a mystery to this day.
