Raj Kiran Mahtani (born19 June 1949) is a former Indian actor who is recognised for his work in Bollywood.[1][2][3] Born in a Sindhi family in Bombay, he made his debut opposite Sarika in B. R. Ishara's Kaagaz Ki Nao (1975) and achieved the crest of his career in the 1980s, having appeared in more than 100 films.[4]
Throughout his career, he accepted leading as well as supporting roles. He was loved for his leading roles in films such as Kaagaz Ki Nao (1975), Shikshaa (1979), Maan Abhiman (1980) and Ek Naya Rishta (1988) as well as being appreciated for his supporting roles in films such as Karz (1980), Baseraa (1981), Arth (1982), Raaj Tilak (1984), and Waaris (1988) to name a few. He was often typecasted as a romantic as well as kind-hearted hero.
He disappeared from the industry and was thought to be living as a recluse in the United States for many years. Rishi Kapoor was reportedly told by Gobind Mahtani, the brother of Raj Kiran that the actor was in Atlanta in an asylum where he was living due to a mental illness. In 2011, his daughter issued a public statement negating the reports of Raj Kiran being found in Atlanta. She and her family have been looking for him with the assistance of New York police and private detectives for years.
"I’ve been wondering where Raj had disappeared. The question was haunting me for a very long time. Then these rumours of Raj being no more began doing the rounds. I was really disturbed. How can a colleague with whom I shared a really good times, just vanish from the face of earth? I decided to look up Raj’s elder brother Govind Mahtani to find out about Raj. I was so relieved when Govind told me that Raj was alive. But he was confined to an institution in Atlanta due to health problems. ... apparently, he looks after his own treatment by working within the institution. It’s a heart-rending situation for an actor who was so successful at one time".
