In the year 2008, he tied knot with his present wife, Vandana Sajnani, who is also a television actress. They welcomed baby boy 11 years after marriage, on Janamashthami and therefore, named him, Vanraj Krishna Khattar. The child’s first name the combination of both the parents’ first name.

Vandana went on to Instagram to share their good news and wrote: "Thank you all for the positive vibes. Love and blessings for our little Krishna." She called him ‘a miracle baby’.

 

Recently, in an interview with a leading newspaper Rajesh revealed that they had to face many struggles and complication and that his wife went through a very difficult pregnancy.  "It's a great feeling, but this journey has been anything but smooth. Many months ago, we were ecstatic when the doctor revealed that Vandana was carrying twins, but during her third month, she was diagnosed with a condition and had to be hospitalised. A few months later, it came to light that the growth of one of our babies was very slow and finally, we lost him,” he said. 

"The situation was such that we needed to go in for immediate delivery to save the other baby. Thus, our son was born three months before he was due. Vandana's surgery did not go smoothly and she took a long time to heal; also, our baby was put in NICU (New-born Intensive Care Unit) and was there for two-and-a-half months. The mother and son struggled throughout the journey, and finally, our little Krishna arrived home on Janmashtami. This is the most beautiful gift bestowed on us by the Gods," he added.

Vandana posted on Instagram a picture of her being on the hospital bed with husband, Rajesh beside. Through her post, she encouraged other couples who are facing troubles like she did and asked them to never lose hope. The caption read,

“Never gave up for 11 years! Tried every science under the Sun ... and finally the universe heard me ... #Faith can move mountains!
