wichy: Íåäàâíåå èíòåðâüþ Ðåêõè - îòñþäà “If I had a man I'd just be devoting all my attention to that one person. Main unka bed bhi banaoongi” – Rekha By Subhash K. Jha, October 10, 2006 - 02:17 IST Since the past three decades, this divine diva has been mesmerizing the audiences with her graceful charm. On her 51st birthday Rekha speaks about her life and times. Do you miss the presence of a man in your life?M If I had a man I'd just be devoting all my attention to that one person. I'm an extremely uni-focus person. Main unka bed bhi banaoongi. I'll take out his clothes, personally monitor his menu, prepare the dabba and personally deliver it to him. I don't think I am capable of enjoying the best of both worlds. I can't deprive the other world of fans and admirers just for that narrow world of a family. That sounds impractical. Maybe I'm being unreal and impractical. But I'm not in denial. If I find someone who's willing to share me with my fans I might change my mind. How much wiser have you grown over the years? Now I know myself as a woman. Even when I was a girl I knew what the woman in me wanted. Now I feel the most amazing thing about my life is the potential of the unknown. Every moment lived is yesterday's headline. Every unlived moment is adding to your growth as a human being. My responses yesterday are invalid today. I feel more sorrow today than I did yesterday. You seem to enjoy pain? That doesn't mean I’m in pain all the time. You must understand I'm growing older. But there’s so much more awareness to make a difference to myself and others. Your fans would want to connect with you on your birthday.... I beg to defer. My fans are no different from me. They celebrate the fact that I'm part of their life through my movies, my photo features and my interviews. At the risk of sounding vain let me say, they absolutely love the fact that I've happened to their lives. But surely they need to meet you, feel your presence? I'm not there as just an invisible entity. I'm very much a part of their family. They find solace in me, as I find love in them. My fans and I validate each other's existence. Unconditional love is possible only with those whom you don't meet. That's the nature of my relationship with God, and with my fans. How do you solve the questions that inevitably appear in one's isolation? There're millions of questions hovering in my mind. Most of them aren't worthy of bothering me. When people are troubled they indulge in all kinds of vices , like drinking or having an illicit affair. I just turn to my fans who share an unconditional love with me. Even someone who has just seen a photograph of me has nice thoughts about me. I've never got negative vibes from anyone. If this isn't a blessing, what is? Aishwarya doesn't need to go to Hollywood to prove herself. Why Bride & Prejudice? Who are these people from outside trying to tap Ash's potential? She's our treasure. It's time we acknowledge her. Would you say your relationship with your fans is very unique? Every actor shares a special relationship with fans. I just view it in a very special way. I know for sure when I reach out to a stranger, even if it's with that one blanket in the dark to a shivering destitute, I feel such elation. There's nothing else that gives me more satisfaction. And it's an instant karma, an immediate high. I immediately forget whatever might be troubling me. And this relationship has nothing to do with being acknowledged as THE REKHA. It could be someone who doesn't even know what I look like. Chahat is a strange thing, like life itself. To try to bring together the instinct with the conscience. …that's the only guru and guideline. Being a loner it works for me. What do you think of Aishwarya Rai playing Umrao Jaan? She looks unbelievable in the promos of Umrao Jaan. I don't know how it will do commercially. But I'm hoping and praying that this film does for Aishwarya Rai what Umrao Jaan did for Rekha, and more. You seem to be very fond of Ash? My heart goes out to Ash. She's been around for so long and yet not been there. That's how it was with me…until I did Umrao. It seemed improbable that a Tamilan girl talking Urdu would work. Similarly this South Indian girl should realize her potential in Umrao She doesn't need to go to Hollywood to prove herself. She's our own. Why Bride & Prejudice? Who are these people from outside trying to tap Ash's potential? She's our treasure. It's time we acknowledge her. Are you happy with the kind of roles you're getting nowadays? Yahan to khud hi dialogue likhna padta hai, angles sochne padte hain. Nowadays I get films where I've to think about sets, co-stars, etc. I can write a book on Rekha & The Disaster Zone In fact you have fallen off a horse during K.C. Bokadia's film Phool Bane Angaaray in 1991. That was only one of the accidents. What about the umpteen number of times I've been electrocuted in a rain sequence? It has happened during so many films including Judaai. I can write a book on Rekha & The Disaster Zone. So are you disaster-prone? I'm not disaster prone. I'm just celebration-prone. There's nothing in my life that I don't celebrate.
Remita: Åù¸ îäíî ñâåæåå èíòåðâüþ - îòñþäà è îòñþäà I've no problems with Soft-porn: Rekha As she turns 51 on Tuesday, the incomparable Rekha speaks To Subhash K Jha. Q: Javed Saab thinks you've touched new chords in your performing prowess in Krissh? A: What can I say? I'm really honoured and touched. He had felt the same way about me in Lajja. These days I'm lucky if I'm noticed for my roles. I just breeze in and breeze out on screen. Q: Why do you say that? A: That's how brief my appearances are both on and off screen. I'm blessed because people notice me even if I appear at a function for two minutes. My appearance in Krissh too is rather brief. Simiji (Garewal) saw the film and said she can't bear to see me as a Daadi. Q: That thought is unacceptable to me also. A: You forget that I'm an actor. For the past ten years I've reached a stage where I could do justice to any role that came my way. It could be Maa ka role, bhabhi ka role….negative or positive. I've done it all with equal sincerity and passion. I was asked why I did a negative role in Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi or soft-porn like Basu Bhattacharya's Astha? Q: Soft-porn?! A: Yes people have always said a lot of things about me. After Astha people had a lot to say about my role of a wife who moonlights as a prostitute. I don't have problems playing anything. Q: Why this democratic attitude for an actress known to be super-selective? A: I was never selective. Nor do I believe any longer that I'm the chosen one. Nowadays I believe I'm one of the chosen ones. Because there're so many others.. I'm happy being who I am, doing what I've to do. It's such a blessing to pick up any role and try to do justice to it. You know, being a character actor isn't a huge blessing in India. Abroad even an actor like Al Pacino is treated like a character actor and given his rightful place. Q: But you can't be deemed a character actor. A: Mujhe koi mushqil se actor bol de to main badi khush hoon. Q: Now look who's being over-modest? A: No no I'm not. The things is, too much importance has been given to my glamour, clothes, whatever. Today I think I'm in the best stage of my life and career. No matter what I do, people are responsive and, to my good fortune, appreciative. I've felt this way for the past ten years. And I say this with utmost humility and sincerity. There's nothing else I can do on this earth to earn a living except acting. The fact is, and this will shock you, I don't say no to any offer except when I feel the producer or director's intentions aren't honest and he's just trying to fire the gun from my shoulders. Q: I don't believe you! A: Come on, the fact that I did Bachke Rehna Re Baba is proof of what I'm saying. Anything that comes my way, I do it …Because I've the confidence and belief in myself and my fans. We share a symbiotic relationship. I also share a similar relationship of give-and-take with my directors. Lekin han, sirf neeyat se kaam nahin chalta hai. I'm doing my best as an actor. If tomorrow I know better I'll try harder. Q: How could you do Bachke Rehna Re Baba? A: Why don't you talk about a long list of other so-called bad films? What about ….let's not take names. Even my family has been embarrassed by some of my films. They say, 'Didi why do you have to do this?' When I feel the vibrations to be positive, who am I to say no to an offer? Main bhookhi-pyaasi ….who am I to refuse that morsel of food that touches my lips? Q: So do you think you haven't been too fortunate with the roles? A: Noooooo. On the contrary, everything I've done has taken me higher. Everything that has happened to my life has been a blessing. I consider myself the most fortunate person I know. For me no film has been mediocre. It's been my baby….whether handicapped or sick, you don't reject your baby. I've nurtured them all. Q: So Krissh? A: When Gudduji (Rakesh Roshan) called and said, 'I'm doing a sequel to Koi…Mil Gaya ' I immediately said yes…naturally! I was Hrithik Roshan's mother in Koi…Mil Gaya. So I had to be his character's son's Daadi. As simple as that. I didn't ask Gudduji how much he was going to pay me or how many days he required. If I had to make an impact I can do so in one scene, one shot or even with my voice. If I feel a film is right then I don't question anything about it—not even the script, though I must confess that's a very important aspect of a film. Q: You seem to trust your own judgement completely? A: I've used my instincts so well and so continuously, I trust it completely. I don't know whether Krissh is going to be a major hit. But it'll be a very important film. It has such phenomenal success behind it, there're huge expectations from the sequel. Q: Have you see it? A: Not yet. Even if I do I'll make sure I don't expect too much of myself in the film. Q: You and Rakesh Roshan go back a long way. A: Yesssssss. We do! He reminded me of how I had agreed to do Khubsoorat with him and how grateful he was. I told him, 'I don't remember you in that film'. Hell, all I remember is how rishida used to pamper me on the sets. Q: Okay make a true confession. A: I LOVE my profession. It's my first love, and that's a true confession. Everything else came later. My profession has been totally true to me as long as I've been true to it. Every time I falter in a performance, dialogue, shot or look I've come out with one positive lesson or another.
Remita: It's time we acknowledge Ash: Rekha - [url=http://hindustantimes.com/news/181_1862228,001100030003.htm]http://hindustantimes.com/news/181_1862228,001100030003.htm[/url] Indo-Asian News Servicehttp: Mumbai, December 8, 2006 Bollywood diva Rekha, who at 51 remains the heartthrob of Indian cine-goers, says she still hopes to meet her ideal man. Excerpts from an Interview: Your fans still feel very distant from you. I beg to defer. My fans are no different from me. They celebrate the fact that I'm a part of their life through my movies, my photo features and my interviews. When people are troubled they indulge in all kinds of vices, like drinking or having an illicit affair. I just turn to my fans who share an unconditional love with me. I've never got negative vibes from anyone. If this isn't a blessing, what is? Why do you think of yourself as a loner? It's a word. It means I spend most my time on my own. Going by my nature, it's the most comfortable situation to be in. My god! Think of all the time I get to reason out things, not analyse situations, that's such a waste of time. But you've to analyse things. And I never consciously created that time. It was bestowed on me. I never thought I'd be home alone, with all my sisters married and gone. I never thought I'd not have my own family, my own children. Do you miss children? Not any more. I do not miss children. Even if I find the ultimate man to have babies with, it'd be very unfair to my priorities. Because if I have a baby, I won't be able to focus on anything else. Then what happens to the babies all over the world with whom I'm connected? What about a man? If I had a man, I'd just be devoting all my attention to that one person. I'm an extremely uni-focus person. I'll take out his clothes, personally monitor his menu, prepare the lunch and personally deliver it to him. I don't think I am capable of enjoying the best of both worlds. I can't deprive the other world of fans and admirers just for that narrow world of a family. May be I'm being unreal and impractical. But I'm not in denial. If I find someone who's willing to share me with my fans, I might change my mind. So many of the actresses today idolise your looks, makeup and clothes. I hope all of them do. The beauty of it is, I don't have to spend hours planning and executing my clothes and makeup. I've done it for 40-odd years. It's like cooking and swimming. Dressing up is second nature to me. I can't bring myself to spend more than 15 minutes on makeup and clothes. I believe you've always done you own makeup? Always. Not even Mickey Contractor, whom I adore, has ever done my makeup. His hands start shaking. I really wish someone would come forward and take over the responsibility for my clothes, makeup and styling. I envy stars who have people to do everything from hair to dialogues. Now-a-days I get films where I've to think about sets, co-stars, etc.
Remita: Rekha still dreams of meeting her prince charming. http://www.glamsham.com/movies/interviews/rekha2.asp Bollywood diva Rekha, who at 51 remains the heartthrob of Indian cine-goers, says she still hopes to meet her ideal man. "May be I'm being unreal and impractical, but I'm not in denial. If I find someone who's willing to share me with my fans, I might change my mind," Rekha told IANS. "If I had a man, I'd just be devoting all my attention to that one person. I'll take out his clothes, personally monitor his menu, prepare the lunch and personally deliver it to him." But Rekha, the star of the original "Umrao Jaan", doesn't crave for children. "I do not miss children. Even if I find the ultimate man to have babies with, it'd be very unfair to my priorities. Because if I have a baby, I won't be able to focus on anything else." On her glam appearance, she says: "I don't have to spend hours planning and executing my clothes and makeup. I've done it for 40-odd years. I can't bring myself to spend more than 15 minutes on makeup and clothes." Excerpts: Your fans still feel very distant from you. I beg to defer.
