Actress Rekha, the evergreen beauty of Bollywood, has consistently enchanted audiences with her stellar acting skills, charming looks, and graceful dance moves. Beginning her acting career as a child artist in a Telugu movie in 1966, she swiftly rose to prominence, becoming one of Bollywood’s top actresses. Beyond her professional achievements, her relationship with Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan has always been a topic of intense discussion and speculation.

Despite their undeniable on-screen chemistry and persistent rumors, both Rekha and Amitabh have never publicly acknowledged their relationship. However, during a rare candid moment on Simi Garewal’s popular talk show “Rendezvous with Simi Garewal,” Rekha openly professed her love for Amitabh, leaving fans and critics alike in awe.

When asked if she had ever been in love with Amitabh, Rekha responded passionately:

“Absolutely. That’s a dumb question. I have yet to come across a single man, woman, or child who can help but fall completely, passionately, insanely, desperately, hopelessly in love with him. So why should I be singled out? What do I deny? I’m not in love with him? Of course, I am. He took the whole world – I feel that for that person. Bottomline.”

This clip of her heartfelt confession has resurfaced on the internet, reigniting discussions about their legendary love story.



Notably, Rekha and Amitabh were never seen together on screen after Yash Chopra’s 1981 film "Silsila." According to Rekha’s admission in the Simi Garewal interview, they only met at public functions and award shows.
