She began her acting journey at a young age, her mother was the true inspiration for her throughout her life. Talking about her mother, Rekha stated, “She taught me the grace of living with gentility and love.

She always said I should never lose the ankh ki chamak, or ‘twinkle in the eyes,’ because it is that joyful perception that makes one appreciate the beauty of a tiny seed that grows into a majestic tree. She also advised me wisely to practice what I love, not what I preach. She set the benchmark for me because my mother walked the talk.”

In her career, Umrao Jan and Utsav played an important role in making more opportunities in the industry for her and made her an icon.

Her performance in both films undoubtedly captured everyone’s attention, her acting skills were on par with the critics and since then no one could come closer to portray Umrao Jan.

Self-Introspect

Rekha during an interview highlighted her self-introspect and love for the art surely embracing her cinematic persona. “I have always lived like an Indian princess, not that anyone is privy to it. I live like that because I feel it.

It’s not just a state of mind, but the state of my life.” Her love for poetry, pathos, and philosophy resonates with the enchantment she brings to the silver screen.

She continued, “My person is my own, but my cinematic persona is in the eyes of the beholder. Therefore, I choose where I want to be and where I don’t want to be. I am so blessed to have earned the right to choose what I love.

And to have the luxury of simply saying no. This keeps my soul alert,” said Rekha in the interview. Talking about the feature becoming a reality, Rekha said, “I simply loved the way it chose me.

The way Manuel, the editor-in-chief, followed his instinct, and had the courage and kindness to ask me, was endearing and irresistible.”

She even acknowledged the efforts of the team especially Manish whom she considered a wise patient pujari. “Manish moved heaven and earth to craft my vision into clothes. To have him leave everything and work tirelessly with me like a wise, patient pujari [priest], I couldn’t have asked for a better executioner of my dreams,” said Rekha.
