Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha’s Love Story. Bollywood is perhaps one of those industries that have delivered several love stories, but this one surely ranks high in terms of attention and controversy. The rumor floated in the corridors of fame and gossip remains mysterious even today.
Despite relentless speculation and a watchful public eye, the couple has never confirmed their relationship. Silent but deliberate and enigmatic in playing for time, their silence has only added to the fascination, making everyone believe in their affair-even as the couple themselves chose to let the world wonder.
The Beginning of Amitabh Rekha Love Story
Amitabh and Rekha-these two legends of our film industry-how did it all begin, and how did it end? Here is the unveiling of the secret behind this love story.
An unconsummated love story of one of the most celebrated romantic pairs of Bollywood: Their love story began on the sets of the film Do Anjaane (1976): After initial days of their affair, they met at a bungalow belonging to a friend of Rekha’s. These were the happy days of their lives-long before the unfortunate incident occurred.
When the Ganga Ki Saugandh (1978) shoot was underway Big B reportedly lost his cool on one of the co-actors who misbehaved with Rekha. Their link-up became news then.
All the gossip mills have been running hot with tales of Rekha-Amitabh’s relationship. They even went to the extent of saying that the duo has secretly had the marriage rites performed.
These rumors gathered even more steam when Rekha solemnly appeared at Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh’s wedding wearing sindoor and mangalsutra. This act of bravery from Rekha answered many queries that her affair with Amitabh had raised.
Why did Amitabh Rekha not get Married?
When the film Silsila finished shooting, the tale of Amitabh-Rekha broke up. She wanted Amitabh to marry her; she did not want to be branded an “other woman”. She realized she had no future because Amitabh would never leave Jaya for Rekha and that’s how the romantic drama ended both on and off the set.
Does Rekha Still Have Feelings For Big-B Amitabh Bachchan?
Recently, Rekha was on the music reality show Indian Idol. During the show, Jay Bhanushali called up judge Neha Kakkar and asked, “have you ever seen a woman falling hard for a married man?” That very moment Rekha instantaneously replied: “ask me.”
And in a reaction that left Jay Bhanushali speechless, he turned and said: “maine kuch nahi kaha (I didn’t say anything).” With that statement, the judges and the audience erupted in laughter.
