She was very popular not only professionally but also in her personal life.
The veteran actress also opened up about her alleged relationship with Amitabh Bachchan.
Rekha is one of the most popular actresses of her time. Back then, her fame was huge. The actress had a huge fan following after her success in the entertainment industry. She was very popular not only professionally but also in her personal life.
From her alleged relationship with legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan to giving bold interviews declaring her love for the actor, Rekha has always been a character to study. There is an old interview of the Khubsoorat actress with Simi Garewal where she talks about binge drinking, drugs and lust.
On the show Meet Simi Garewal, she spoke about her alleged love affair with Amitabh, her marriage with Mukesh Aggarwal and how she deals with everything else in life.
Simi Garewal asks the veteran actress, “How come one has never heard of Rekha’s binge drinking or Rekha’s drug use? You just kept it very clean, eh?” To Simi Garewal’s question, Rekha replied, “Of course I binge drinking. Of course, I did drugs. I was very impure. I was lustful as hell. Ask me with what? With life. Got you!”
That was indeed a stunning answer and there is no denying that Rekha’s charm works every time she appears at a public event or media meet.
In the same interview, the veteran actress also opened up about her alleged relationship with Amitabh Bachchan and said, “I have not met a single man, woman, child who has not fallen completely, passionately, madly, desperately and hopelessly in love with him. So why should I be singled out? What am I to deny? I am not in love with him? Yes, of course, I am. Duniya bhar ka love aap le lijiyega and a little more – I feel that for that person. Bottomline.”
