New Delhi: Legendary Bollywood actress and timeless beauty Rekha still remains an enigma to one and sundry. Her path-breaking performances, powerful roles and intriguing life are all witnessed by the audience who adore her immensely.

According to her biography, Rekha: The Untold Story, nobody other than her secretary is allowed to enter Rekha’s bedroom. The excerpt from her biography reads, “Farzana is a perfect partner for Rekha. She is her consultant, her friend, and her supporter, and Rekha simply can’t live without her. In fact, only Rekha’s trusted secretary Farzana — who some have claimed is her lover — is permitted inside her bedroom; not even domestic help are allowed entry.”
“Farzana controls and tightly monitors the comings and goings in Rekha’s life and household. She is a formidable gatekeeper and is said to vet each phone call and choreograph practically every minute of Rekha’s life. Rekha has clothed herself in mystique and secrecy — and it is Farzana who makes it possible for her to have such a hermetic existence,” the book mentions.
