Veteran actress Rekha has won hearts for her acting chops over the years. But she’s made more noise over her controversial life than her career. The Umrao Jaan actress has been linked with many Bollywood actors, including Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, and Vinod Mehra. But remember when she broke myths about how women should not get intimate before their suhaag raat? Scroll below for the lesser-known throwback!
Rumors were rife that Rekha once secretly got married to Vinod Mehra in 1973, a rumor she strictly denied. But she continued to grab eyeballs for her alleged controversial relationship with Amitabh Bachchan, although he was already married to Jaya Bachchan. She had tied the knot with Delhi-based industrialist Mukesh Aggarwal in 1990, but he died by suicide months after their wedding.
The Silsila actress has been quite unfiltered about her personal life. She’s among the rare stars who did not deny her liking for Amitabh Bachchan despite understanding the plight of his wife, Jaya Bachchan. Rekha once called herself a “badnaam actress” because of the scandals she was surrounded with. But that did not stop her from sharing her thoughts on pre-marital s*x.
