One of the finest actresses of the Indian Film Industry- Rekha spoke about working with Amitabh Bachchan in the film Suhaag in Kapil Sharma’s show on Netflix.
The actress appeared as a special guest on The Great Indian Kapil Show. During the episode, a fan asked Rekha about the song ‘O Sheronwali’, from the film Suhaag.
The song featured Rekha and Superstar Amitabh Bachchan. In the song, Rekha performs Dandiya in a temple.
Speaking about the song, a fan asked Rekha, “In the movie Suhaag, you played Dandiya so well. Even though you are a South Indian, you played the Gujarati Dhandiya so well. It didn’t feel like you were not a Gujarati. How did you manage it?”
Although Rekha did not mention Amitabh Bachchan’s name, she was all praise for him. “Think about this, the personality of the person I was performing dandiya with.
I had to do a good job. Even though I didn’t know how to play dandiya when he stood in front of me, I would just start dancing,” she said.
Superstar of the Millennium- Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha were a popular Bollywood pair with great on-screen chemistry.
Some say their affair began on the set of Do Anjaane, and their relationship became public after an incident on the set of Ganga Ki Saugandh.
Silsila was their last film together in 1981.
Quite a few times Rekha has said that Bachchan shaped her as an actor and a human being. She also said that the wait to co-star with him again was worth it.
Amitabh Bachchan has said that he is open to working with Rekha again.
