After top stars like Amitabh Bachchan , Shah Rukh Khan , Madhuri Dixit , Karisma Kapoor , Govinda , Jeetendra , Urmila and Shilpa Shetty made their presence felt on the smaller screen its now the turn of yesteryear’s actor - politician Vinod Khanna who seems to have been bitten by the T.V. bug.

The actor last seen in the forgettable flick Risk with Randeep Hooda will be making his television debut in a new show called ‘Mere Apne’ on the newly launched 9X entertainment channel.

The actor will be seen playing the patriarch of a traditional north Indian family and would be co-starring with yet another leading T.V. star Smriti Irani.
