Rekha On Not Working With Amitabh After Silsila: Fans like the onscreen pairing of Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha a lot. These two stars have given many blockbuster films together. From ‘Mr. Natwarlal’ to ‘Do Anjaane’ and ‘Muqaddar Ka Sikandar’, Amitabh and Rekha’s chemistry was amazing in all the films. Then rumors of this pair’s off-screen romance also spread. But it was the 1981 romance drama ‘Silsila’ that really enthralled the audience. Jaya Bachchan was also in this film. After ‘Silsila’, Amitabh and Rekha never worked together again. The veteran actress had revealed the reason for this in an interview.
What loss did Rekha suffer for not working with Amitabh for years?
In fact, in an interview given to Filmfare in 2006, Rekha had openly talked about the reasons behind her and Amitabh Bachchan’s decision not to work together after the 1981 cult film ‘Silsila’. On Amitabh Bachchan’s 82nd birthday, this old interview of Rekha is becoming increasingly viral on social media.
During the interview, Rekha was asked what loss she faced for not working with Amitabh for years. On this Rekha had said, “My loss is that I did not get a chance to share Amitji’s wonderful growth as an actor.” Despite this, when the makers gave her a chance to dub for actresses like Neetu Singh in Yaarana and Sridevi in Aakhri Raasta, Rekha expressed her happiness.
Why did Rekha-Amitabh not work after Silsila?
When Rekha was asked why she and Amitabh did not work together again after ‘Silsila’, Rekha gave a deep and philosophical answer. She had said, “The only answer I can think of is that it is worth the wait to be able to co-star with Amitji. That everything happens at the right time for the right reason.” Rekha had further said, “I truly believe that the fruits of patience are sweet. Time has no importance in this case. “I know this for sure.”
Rekha had also said that Amitabh and her not being seen together in any film is not about the passage of time, but about the decision of those directors who have not yet got any project according to the talent of both of them. ,
