Rekha Sindoor Secret: Many aspects of Bollywood's veteran actress Rekha's life still remain mysterious. Rekha once came into the news due to a question asked by President Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy about her sindoor. This incident happened when Rekha was receiving the National Film Award for Best Actress for her famous film "Umrao Jaan" in 1981.
During this, President Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy asked Rekha a very interesting question, “Why do you apply sindoor in your hair parting?” This question was surprising because Rekha always had sindoor in her hair parting, and it is a part of her personality. Rekha replied to this by saying, “In the city I come from, applying sindoor in the hair parting is very common… it is a fashion there.”
Talking about Rekha's film career, she has done films like Nagin (1976), Muqaddar Ka Sikandar (1978), Mr. Natwarlal (1979), Khoobsurat (1980), Umrao Jaan (1981) and Khoon Bhari Maang (1988). Rekha has always believed that she is not just a star, but an artist. Any role is important for her, not just playing the lead role.
Rekha shared many interesting things about her personal life on Simi Grewal's show. When asked what Bhanurekha wanted to become, she said, "I did not want to become an actor at all. I just wanted to get married and settle down." Rekha also admitted that she could never speak her heart openly. She said that she has always challenged herself and still does, like her recent 24-25 minute non-stop performance at the IIFA Awards 2024.
