Ash steps out yet again
We spotted Aishwarya at the launch of 'Hanuman Chalisa'. See the picture? Jaya seems annoyed at the photographer while Ash smiles on.
Rekha: The diva
There is something about Rekha that makes her special. She gives the word Diva a whole new meaning. As she turns a year older, we take a look at what makes her a mystery.
Rekha was born Bhanurekha to a family of stars. She made her Bollywood debut with Sawan Bhandon
She was considered 'ugly' and she was determined to prove her skills to all
She has been quoted as saying "I devoted thirty-one years of my life to this industry and in turn this industry has given me everything that I can be proud of - name, fame and the perks that go with stardom.
She is a dreamer... she lives in her own world. She imagines a lot of things that suit her psyche as an actor. She is a very genuine, warm and a very sensitive person... And no denying the fact a very good learner. It has been an amazing experience to work with her; she is a perfect actress," Muzaffar Al
Rekha is nearest to the parallel of Swedish actress Greta Garbo... they both came from poor backgrounds and climbed great heights... As an artist she was first noticed in Ghar and after that she was no more termed as only a voluptuous artist in Hindi cinema because then came films like Khubsoorat and Umrao Jaan that set her apart," said noted film historian Gautam Kaul.
Rekha is a diva... In fact, the term diva (in India) was coined for Rekha. The way she has metamorphosed herself from what she was when she came into the industry is mind blowing... She has worked on her language, body, diction, everything and apart from that she's a fantastic actress," said renowned film critic Omar Qureshi.
Must watch movies: Muqaddar Ka Sikander, Ghar, 'Ganga Ki Saugandh', 'Umrao Jaan' 'Suhaag', 'Alaap', 'Khoon Pasina', 'Immaan Dharam' 'Silsila'
Her personal life has been under the scanner too. Was she having an affair with Amitabh Bachchan? We are not sure.
Rekha is an enigma. There is no doubt about it. You can either love her or hate her, there is no way in between.
But when it comes to talent, Rekha is among the best the industry have ever seen.

Prateik is very spontaneous: Kalki Koelchin
Bollywood actor Kalki Koelchin, who has teamed up with Prateik for soon-to-release movie " My Friend Pinto", finds the co-star very spontaneous and humble.
Kalki and Prateik, who walked the ramp for designer Rina Dhaka on the first day of the Wills Lifestyle Fashion Week (WIFW) Saturday, walked confidently and totally in sync on the ramp.
Prateik is very spontaneous and humble. He always instructs and supports me whenever I get nervous so this chemistry worked on ramp as well," Kalki told reporters after the show.
In the first half, Kalki was seen wearing a fish-cut gown with minimal accessories, while Prateik shed his shy demeanour to flaunt his six-pack abs in a lycra shirt with buttons wide open, and a pair of cotton trousers.
The second half saw Kalki flaunting a flowing off-shoulder gown with an asymmetrical hemline, and Prateik walked in a chiffon, beige-coloured shirt with a pair of printed trousers.
Dhaka's collection was a mix of dresses, gowns, trousers in fabrics like silk, chiffons, linen silk, cotton silk and lace.
The elements of tassle played a major role in my collection and every ensemble will reflect the mood of summer. The colour palatte has a country feel and touch of seventies. The major shades were taupe, pink browns, dull acid green, ivory and dove grey," said Dhaka, who is "looking forward to some great business."
