Director Raja Nawathe and Biswajeet had it all planned, and during what was supposed to be a romantic scene, Biswajeet grabbed Rekha and kissed her lips for full five minutes, and the crew kept whistling and cheering him on.

When she was beaten up with a chappal by her “mother-in-law”.

Rekha had reportedly married Vinod Mehra, but denied the same with an interview to Simi Garewal. The biography, however, says something else.

Rekha had tied the know with Vinod Mehra and the just married couple made their way to Mehra’s residence in Mumbai. His mother was not welcoming at all. She refused to let Rekha in the house and verbally abused her.

All the guests and the media were surprised and shocked, they couldn’t stop wondering if Rekha had got secretly married.

Mukesh Agarwal, Rekha’s then husband, suffered from chronic depression, which was only aggravated by their divorce. Mukesh hanged himself from the ceiling fan using Rekha’s dupatta. This was the third husband of Rekha who had died, which led to people all over the country (including industry friends) accusing her of witchcraft. Director Subhash Ghai accused her of putting a blot on the face of the film industry, while actor Anupam Kher called her a national vamp.

When Jaya Bachchan Cried While Watching Romantic Scenes Of Amitabh & Rekha !

The last movie she did with the biggest star the country has seen was Prakash Mehra’s  ‘Muqaddar Ka Sikander’. The film that released in 1978, put a virtual period to their reportedly surreptitious yet passionate relationship. Speculators attributed the rift to Jaya Bachchan having given an ultimatum to Big B.

But turns out, in an interview to Stardust, Rekha had revealed the real reason behind it.

“Once I was looking at the whole (Bachchan) family through the projection room when they came to see the trial show of Muqaddar Ka Sikandar. Jaya was sitting in the front row and he (Amitabh) and his parents were in the row behind her. They couldn’t see her as clearly as I could. And during our love scenes, I could see tears pouring down her face. A week later (after the trial show of Muqaddar Ka Sikandar), everybody in the industry was telling me that he has made it clear to his producers that he was not going to work with me.
