- REKHA
Rekha is a friend. She had watched each and every Rendezvous and told me how much she loved them. For several years I invited her to have a rendezvous with me, she would always reply, "I don't have the self-confidence."
The time came for my 100th Rendezvous episode. I wanted a' special guest' for this landmark show, so I asked her once again. This time she agreed - and it really was 'special'...
I've known Rekha for a long time. I find her absorbing - and very entertaining too. She is a great mimic!
We have endless phone talks - always about four hours! And each time she surprises me with new facets in her to love. Rekha is
immensely wise and astute. Acutely observant. Has an elephantine memory. She is also the least self-obsessed star I know; some one who never harbours a mean thought or word. Rekha loves generously.
In my rendezvous -- I took her back in her journey from Bhanurekha, the child; through her stormy adolescence.. her stardom.. her loves...marriages.. covering, in fact, Rekha's entire evolution.
It's a panoramic canvas of one of the most legendary stars of our time -- and also - an intimate portrait of a woman.
Don't miss it....Watch the other two parts as well!

This show seriously needs to make a comeback and Simi Garewalji is an amazing host. She let's her guests finish. She understands their emotions and is very humble unlike other talk show hosts and this interview with Rekhaji is pure gold. Simiji talked about Rekha's personal life struggles with so much empathy and with utmost respect. Truly beautiful.
No surgery.Rekha never undergone any cosmetic surgery.but may be yoga??
..
Simi Garewal ji and humble?? Simi kept rolling her eyes at Rekha ji's answers. That was very rude and she asked so mant intrusive questions. It was Rekha's graceful behavior that saved the conversation.
@@snehaluict you need to really understand what she rolled her eyes at. It wasn't disrespecting Rekha but never mind. Your negativity won't affect the elegance and class of Simi Garewal ji.
@@doinalright4552 Elegance: Yes. Humble: No.
Also, an elegant person wouldn’t roll their eyes - regardless of the point in question. Rekha ji has her right to draw a line where she wants to.
Rekha speaks far better English than the modern day celebrities. Hands Down !!
And that's fine. It's just a language and not mother tongue here in India.
Yup. That's what we south Indians specialized for
That's the power of old school
@@Withlovemunmun If your working in an International film industry and were educated in India. Not knowing English is a reflection of how poorly educated you really are. It's an Official language. But then again we have North Indians who move to Mumbai and refuse to learn Marathi.
@@Blaze6432 So, whats wrong in not learning Marathi? Why do you want to impose/ force a particular language upon someone, who has no interest and neither is that important to know that ' particular ' language. Also, maybe it's important for the Actors or people with such professions which does include international platforms but not for everyone. Definitely not the criteria to tell someone is educated/ literate or not.
Why Simi ji feels more like a therapist talking than an interviewer ☺️
Yeah. She needs to come back
Damn I thought I was the only one who felt that 🙌🏻
Sashi tharoor batch
Yes, bcz she wants the TRUTH. But rekha is never going to reveal the truth, it's too sordid, ....so instead..... she tries to give these "philosophical" mumbo jumbo answers. She's not fooling anybody. We can see what she's trying to do.....🤣🤣
True
It’s so sad reading the comments in this video that so many view Rekha as a tragic figure simply because she doesn’t have a husband or children. Not every woman wants to have children or a husband and there’s a difference between being lonely and being alone. Rekha to me is a symbol of strength and courage, a woman who rose above a dysfunctional childhood, broken romances who had the courage to live life on her own terms in a patriarchal society. Rekha should be celebrated, not pitied.
This is my thousand time watching this interview and with each viewing I learn something new about womanhood.
❤️ you Rekha and Queen Simi ❤️
She is not married yet ?
@@naginaafridi2730 no
Totally agree
I think people pity her not because she does not have a husband or children, but because she wanted to have and never were her dreams fulfilled. If you choose not to have a family or get married and you don't have it, that's different.
True 🥰🥰🥰
Sushmita Sen and Rekha seems to be soul sisters who shares similar life lessons and values.
Nice observation
Sushmita is not like rekha ji ...sush was in live in relation for 7 years with vikram bhatt and she used other directors also
Like two grown up women who knows the good, the bad and the ugly of this world
@@emmaphilo4049 well said
@@afreenc34 livin relationships are very normal in Mumbai and other big cities, why would you think it's bad?
The way she said about her childhood dreams that she wanted to get married ,have, children and get a loving husband brought tears in my eyes
Ma'am plz ye btayiye ki simi Grewal ne kya bola introduction dete waqt ki like garbel? Mtlab
This is just so sad. Not having a proper childhood, being pressurised to do a job she didn't like, unrequited love,repressed feelings, lack of paternal affection or even minute attention. But I have a huge respect for this lady for holding up like this. We can feel her crying inside.
And all those feelings and emotions have all got to do with her father, who's such a reckless person/parent. Some people people get out of it, some don't . Unfortunately, she never got she lacked all through her childhood .
And she likely felt hopelessly in love with Amitabh and other men so quickly because of that paternal emotional void…
@@iamyoda1980That’s the worst part when you don’t have a father in your life you just fall recklessly with any man
Really wish we have interview like this in today's time. The poise, the Grace and the articulation is immaculate.
Absolutely, its a pleasure to watch
Ikrr
Lolwut? It's ridiculous. It actually feels disturbing just how sickly sweet everything is. It's like I'm watching plastic alien people talk.
@@ArawnOfAnnwn lol spamming the same comment full of negetivity on every comment praising her, why are you so bothered?
Which word simi used for rekha like garbel she is elusive, enigmatic what is the meaning of this word?
I think Rekha is drop dead gorgeous and well spoken. Rekha, is the epitome of glamour, grace and beauty ! Simi, well done for a superb interview.
You are cute!!!
Elijah Ratwatte you are so cute
I could watch this interview for hours & hours!! I absolutely aodre these two beautiful women of indian cinena Simi Ji & Rekha Ji ♥
"Is It.!
4years & I'm commenting now lol
Rekha is so poetic and I think she is a mystic lover. A philosopher who has gone beyond the worldly definitions of concepts. Love her voice her way of feeling and thinking. May God bless her with good health, happiness and peace.
Agree
Gems Monny lakshmlstores
Nayaki has
She’s magnificent
Yes i think same as u
She has suffered a lot but still has managed to keep her dignity and elegance. A true warrior...a true diva. My heart just broke when she mentioned about her dreams...
😂😂😂 married man k sath shuru hgyi dignity lol
@@noorsheikh2428😂
Exactly!!!
Everything she speaks is so poetic, i can listen to her for hoursssss
Lana pfp
Eww no. It's ridiculous. It actually feels disturbing just how sickly sweet everything is. It's like I'm watching plastic alien people talk.
@@ArawnOfAnnwn but you still watched it anyways and also left a "negative" comment lmao😂👏🏻
@@Moonlight-ml2gv I didn't watch all of it, only enough to see how weird it is. YT cares about watch time, so my partial view won't be doing her any favors. Besides, it's not like this channel is growing or anything - the show is dead, this is just an archive.
@@ArawnOfAnnwn yea that's why you're everywhere commenting shits about her. It's just her personal life that she shared what's disturbing in that? Even if it's so, you don't have to watch it. You can scroll down
omg i literally had tears on my eyes wen she said about her dreams, mArriage, babies n a loving husband...she has none of them :( how can life be so much unfair to such an awesome people
Words of my mouth i swear
It's becoz of his father's karma.. Fooling other wives of his for his lustful life.. It affected his own children.
"People with good heart & good intentions always suffer." This world is no place for good people.
@Khalid Mahmood aww
@@deekk2995 that's wrong of u , her other half sisters have children u can't just blame her , her mother was the one who forced gemini into her life , I agree gemini ganesan fucked around with other women , u can't blame her for her parents sins , she was destined to remain a loner !!!
the way u called SAVITRI AMMA brings on huge respect towards you
In Bollywood nowadays,there's no one as graceful as Rekha.
Nor anyone as great a host as Simi.
Rekha's father and amitavh bacchan made her believe all men in this world are nothing but pigs walking around with two legs and two balls without a spinal cord😒😒😒 I hope she find peace in her life each day, she deserves it❤
She think or she don't, better you stop commenting on mens with such abusive words.....even we are humans.... mind your words
Dont talk without knowing the real truth... pushpavalli rekha mom who already married had children felt love with gemini ganesan uncknditionala love... even he avoided her she didnt leave him at any cost.... gemini real love is savithiri amma only
@@allinallammu8768 you waste fellow, savitri is also second wife. Ganesan's first wife is Alamelu. Savitri & pushpavalli both are love interests for him. Ganesan ignored her first wife for savitri, that bloody buggard womanizer and has so many stories at that time. Atleast see wiki how many times he married.
@@prerna5526 yes who said they don't exist? But Only in the story book🙄🤣🤣
I was more irritated by her statement that South mai ye sab chaltha hai. May be in telugu bcoz in don't know much about old telugu stars. At least our malayalam industry never had such heros who have more than 1 wife. Even now our superstars are very family oriented.
Cosmetic surgery or not...but no one can deny the fact that rekha is breathtakingly gorgeous
You too😍
Her nose look better before.
Totally, she's got a sultry look.

Rakha ji is an example for all those women who struggle alone without any support.
yesss
She never needed support she managed on her own
Struggle? Why does it have to be Struggle? Women thrive alone. You should change your mentality.
@@LOL-ps3tg Every human being needs moral support, a bit of love, a companion. But it is not in his/her hand. People name those women as strong women who do not break down and move on and become successful. They look very happy, confident, cheerful publicly. But I can understand very well how they feel when they are alone at home and struggle with their loneliness and emotions.
@@drhimajam2849 yes women need a companion too but all the abuse, emotional and physical labour that a woman is expected to put up with for a man in a relationship is not worth it for a lot of women
Looking at this interview made me realise what truly being grateful means. She never once told about her tough stories in a way that would reflect that she is seeking attention or sympathy.
She told her story as a movie story. Completely fascinated and so humbled by the life’s ups and downs but coming out as a graceful person.
Hats of to carry such attitude after a hard life. Loads of love Rekha the legend.
No one seeks attention when they are telling you how upset they are,grow up.
That's what I was thinking...
Man she remembers all the good memories.
That's very positive way to live.
Or Jo iski wjh se jaya ki life affect hui wo
she is hiding a lot of secrets. she didnt let one out no mattery how hard simi tried.
Simi is her friend. She knows everything. But Rekha is certainly hiding something from public. She knows that even public know it. But she is just showing her maturity.
You said it all
She is lady with cursed luck..yet she has knows how to live.. You are adorable mam..
May be cursed luck in other aspects... But she is very lucky regarding her career. She is very successful.
cursed luck to you but a real full life to other people.
This day you find many Career Oriented women who are financially independent and well off and only in there mid thirties and they are divorced, they Care a damn about the Society and enjoying life to fullest.Rekha ji is a millions of Dollar rich Women having the best of Fancy Car and Bunglows in Mumbai and Visted whole of Europe and U. S. A thirty years back. she can easily Flaunt her wealth and financial independence to show,what a privilege life she lives but only projects herself as a women who Could not marry the man she always desired. Amitabh. Amitabh was the man was just when reigning supreme after Release of Sholay and Deewar fell in love with Rekha and gave her all the love , respect. Rekha Could eaisly say that whatever Love was not given by my father Gemini Ganesan was full filled by Amit ji when she was only in her early twenties.Amitabh bachchan Could not go back to days of 1975 onward when he was famous Cult Status highly respected. now he has wealth but not that famous or respected.
I'm an American who has never seen a Bollywood movie. This video came up in my suggestions. Never heard of this woman before. But she's one of the most stunning women I've ever seen!
She is evergreen beauty n Goddess of Bollywood. Bad that she had a difficult childhood n was unlucky in love n marriage.
She was born to 2 leading movie stars Gemini Ganesan and pushpavalli .
No surprise she is so beautiful
"Anything that's filled with Romance is not easy but having said that I think Romance is beautiful.. no matter how difficult it seems...I think Romance is wonderful...it's worth it!" Such beautiful lines🥺♥️
I have lost the count of how many times I have watched this particular rendezvous with The Rekha.
She is someone who is beyond explainable, a true diva, a woman of substance!
Thank you Simiji for making her comfortable and took so much out of her heart. She has never poured her heart out like this before.
What a beautiful conversation between two elegant and gracious women.
@SimiGarewalOfficial This particular vedio is one of my most favorites one on youtube and my comment on it being pinned top, means a lot. Thank you Madam.
Watching this in April 2019.
Told myself I would watch only the first 5 minutes but ended up watching the whole interview. What charisma, what brutal honesty and yet what evasiveness.
Karan Johar, you cheapskate, take a leaf out of this dignified interview.
Yeah. The words of rekha ji is going through the heart. Feeling the pain💔💔
Why is Karan a cheap stake?
@@vedikarathi6488 why do you think he is not one?
Mary Ann basil felt nostalgia that era where. We used to watch. But recently i said same thing then u knw one man said yar jakl ka zamana h karan new hai mje kehta iam old school
@@vedikarathi6488 there is no why. He just is. It’s weird if you have watched his talk show and still under the impression that he is not.
Doesn’t mean he sometimes doesn’t give classy vibe. Sometimes, in his unapologetic acceptance of his own self, he is classy as well.
for a girl who did not complete high school, rekha is amazingly perceptive and learned
Her English is so updated and the accent is amazing for that era. And she is gorgeous and elegant 😭🫶🏻❤️
Whenever I feel low, I come here. There is so much I relate with rekha ji. An abusive alcoholic dad. Docile mother. Emotional neglect. An unrequited love. Her aloofness. It's like advice from someone who has trodden the path same as mine. And simiji is a secret therapist I guess. Cathartic interview overall.
Take care dear
More strength to u man
I am very much respecting one and only Actress I think very good symble of currage women I bless you a healthy life as your warding bottom heart I am from Sri Lanka always I am watching this interview learn something to life and admire with this allronded respectable one and only Madam Rekah ji
I'm in add
Rekha is possibly the most beautiful woman in the world. Both inside and out. NO ACTRESS in this generation compares. She is timeless.
lara fz agree. I love her just discovered her😍 she's so relatable
that is true - that No.Actress in this genrration is /can be compared to.her....however she is not the most beautiful - there waz Smita Patil , Shabana Azmi..to name a few..who were Beautiful also.
Absolutly correct .no one is even ever close as what Rekhaji is .
Timeless is the word for you Rekha♥️
'all she wanted was to be in love and have children' poor thing.. breaks my heart. intertesting how most of us can see and feel her pain. She is sad.. but what a strong woman to keep going. god bless you my dear :) much love . . I wonder whatever happened with her and Amitabh. I sense that she is still in love with him?
Of course She still loves Amitabh.... I just get the feeling
Yes she does and her love is the purest form ...like her mother and father , she was a symbol of true love after all ❤️
Simiji's chat show is MUCHHHHHHH better than today's boisterous shows. I felt the conversations in her episodes were meaningful & mature.
How can someone be so vulnerable and so confident at the same time why I can sense the burried pain in her voice or it's just a effect ......I don't know why I felt that ease on her face is symbolic to a havoc
So true 👍👍👍👍
She is crying inside... So much pain in her eyes... she is trying hard to hide 😰
Kohe Noor yes....i felt so too....😞
why
She's very defensive and blocked a lot, too much pain in heart, God bless her x
😥
You guys want Rekha to be a tragic tale so bad but she’s clearly not. She’s made the decisions for her life that SHE felt were right for HER. She’s still here, she’s still beautiful and she’s still living life on her own terms
Rekha lived her life by her rules, how many women have this confidance to do this ....
gauri Srivastava so true even today we have ti think so much 😪
By her rules? Not really don’t think so , she accidentally failed on the type of life she lived and couldn’t come out of it . This woman had a lot to offer but needed a professional help nobody helped her to get one. Sad
@@karma3681 hey! don't be so sympathetic towards single persons. Sometimes it's a blessing to be alone, full of peace of mind!
Those who don't marry also live a long happy satisfied life.eg APJ Abdul kalam,atal Vajpayee,dilip kumar (doesn't have children ) ...
Proud Indian Thanx mate . I wish that’s the case for her.
She never lived her life confidently.
All the most unexpected events just were forced on her and she had no chouce but get going
i am a 21yo girl who lives nowhere near india but i somehow stumbled upon this show and ive been mesmerized ever since. even if ive never heard about the guests, the way mrs. simi makes them open up and just speak such life stories along with a soft voice, its more than beautiful. many of this shows episodes touched my heart. thank you
So many uncomfortable questions, so gracefully asked and answered. Such were the interviews in those days. Wohoo 👌
I can see clear in her eyes.. instead of desire n ambitions she wanted only a lovely married life.
A poor soul, a confused beautiful soul, who's childhood was taken away from her, n was forced to take responsibility of her family at such a young age wow, breaks my heart, still defending her parents, whom neglect her, what a disheartened father, & a greedy mother who wanted to make money out of her child.
Still this woman is a true classy, sophisticated & most interesting intellectual person I seen on a interview I truly admire this beauty.
two gracious ladies defying age...what a Rendezvous!!! One of its kind.
The class, sophistication and soul searching in this interview is almost unbelievable. It flowed like a poem composed out of melancholy and bittersweet memories, yet it's strangely healing and heartwarming. It's a standard for how a candid interview should flow.
When she talks about her father, you can see the pain in her eyes. Simi was too aggressive with the questions. Could be more gentle.
Yaa really
Simi was never aggressive but yes few questions are very precise and straight. Again asked very deligently
Simi is constantly digging into her wounds .. I mean ask 2 or 3 questions on her relationship with her dad but going on n on n on about the same topic is v uncomfortable n painfull which Rekha handled v gracefully
You can see and feel pain in her eyes and voice. Her dad really hurt her and doesn't even care. Nobody should be treated like that.
+MsUa125 so true. very defensive. trying to hide the pain.
MsUa125 yes feel sorry for her she is great Liked her and love her
Parents are not always generous. Whether in Rekha's life or in mine, all the miseries were rooted by parents themselves.
Old people sent to old age home are paying the price for their own negligence.
I truly wish if someone make a film on this topic which could make the society understand that it is not always the children who are responsible for these types of situations.
If people are not capable, they should not get married, at least this can prevent the damages happening to faultless and innocent children.
Gone are the days when honesty was an asset and today people are bullied, harassed and even assassinated for being honest. It is evident from my case that I was getting beaten during my childhood for being honest and today mentally harassed.
May God shower some mercy upon unlucky children like us.
Rahul Rathod parents especially brown ones are a different species altogether such complex beings, taking revenge from their own kids for whatever they went through in their lives and this has been happening for generations now , crazy pathetic but u still gotta love em!
Rahul Rathod you r absolutely rightt i agree wid u 100%
Her exceptional journalism was suggested to me through yt algorithms, and honestly as a Moroccan from North Africa, I'm struck by her level of professionalism and otherworldly elegance!
She is good at hiding her feelings. Very very good.
Simi really tried hard to pinch her to let her reveal the real rekha but rekha was just too smart.
I have always lived this show, but rekha dodged simi, absolutely. Otherwise simi is very skilled host.
The sadness in her eyes were very evident. She may smile and laugh, but the sadness was there. She had a very difficult childhood and her adult life was not very great either. This life was not generous with her.
woww...her life is very fascinatied. she never wanted to become an actress but she became, she always wanted to get married and have lots of child but,she left deprived of all these desires... जो चाहा वह कभी नहीं मिला जो कभी चाहा ही नहीं वह मिल गया...Ultimate mysterious creation of God is Rekha.
Rekha's mother tongue was Telugu. She learned english in school which she attended till just class 9th. And then she learned both Hindi, Urdu and Tamil which is a lot !!!
She became so fluent in Hindi by herself that she dubbed many South Indian actresses including Sridevi.
Her father is a Tamilian
I had come across this show a while ago and the first episode I watched was the interview with Benazir Bhutto. I was really mesmerized by the host’s way of conducting the interview. She is definitely one of a kind and if a classy, dignified and sophisticated show like this were to be aired on TV in today’s date, I would definitely start watching TV again. The aura of the host is really captivating. God bless. Love listening to these interviews.
B bbv
Yes I always liked her but then she was not a Kapoor or Khan. Sad!
Rendezvous is more than just a conversation. It is about soul speaking, soul searching and soul revealing in a raw yet real tapestry of words. Rekha's journey is magical and mystical, beyond simple comprehension. It requires a whole range of emotions and experience to understand her as an artist and a woman. Thank you, Simi Ma'am, for encouraging your guests to embark on their nostalgic, cathartic journeys
Deeptangshu Das You write expectionally!
Barfi Shaikh Sorry, I missed your reply! Thanks so much for your kind words. Means a lot!
Subarna Ghosh ooo
@@deeptangshudas2661 you really write amazingly . It's not about the Grammer , it's how you arranged the decors(words ) ... Really amazing
@@zapzoop3375 thanks a lot for the appreciation
Rekha has had many disappointments in life, it started from her childhood into adulthood….she is a romantic, always wanted true love…..but never found it…..DESTINY!
@Unsung Songs true,who has standards,their no of relationships r also very less or none,bcz of standard,agree,here level I mean moral, philosophical too
The more we look for it the more far it will go 4m us. Especially love, we can't expect love whom we love even. We chase it n ended up being single.
She is a complete woman. Strong , wants to give lots of love to someone worthy , has a heart filled with secrets , pain , love . I am not a fan but I respect her very much. That father of her tried his best to screw her up for good......but she fought it. Respect ma'am ❤️
Anything filled with romance is not easy, wow!.... You can clearly see she's reciting what she learned from her mother but also her personal experiences.
Rekha was asked about her professional and personal relationship with Amitji and I felt she played with a straight bat. Why was Amitji not posed with any question pertaining to his leading ladies? Was it because he has a family to answer and is very active in public life?
Ma'am, Mr Bachchan was also asked the question in his Rendezvous of 1998. Perhaps you could watch it. Thank you for your interest in our channel. SimiGarewalOfficial Team

I love her sadness and her inside cry. It seems that she was treated very badly in her early days. She is so elegant now and I wish her a better life with happiness.
The brightest stars have the darkest stories.
There should be a biopic on Rekha's life.. such a genuine human being.. love her
I have watched this interview so many times, and it always breaks my heart watching Rekha mention her desires of being loved, having a family, children and husband. Things that are taken for granted by many people are things of desire for others. I really wished she actually could fulfil that dreams of hers.
when i looked at the old interview of her she had tht sparkle in her eyes so happy bt now? i see her strong sad eyes
yeah right
These two women are my ultimate Bollywood crush.
This interview is a treat....
I'm suprised how honest she is and well spoken but she has a sadness to her
My gosh how she still able to look so drop dead georgeous
I can never get tired of watching Rekha on Simi ... she's intriguing and magical.. :)
Akumnaro😁ere
She is more awakened and talks about things people are talking two decades later after her interview . ‘ the healing’ and all . She is so calm altho simi is intrusively digging.
Rekha, She is so much ahead of her time. Truly one of the timeless beauty and a persona
Rekha's voice is so so soothing.
I hope Rekha knows how much we love her.
How can someone look not only beautiful but this hot at this age?? I mean she's the definition of timeless beauty.
People like to dismiss it by crediting the makeup behind her beauty which is ridiculous because it's almost impossible for any other person to look this stunning even with all that makeup, dress and jewellery in that age. They might look just good but in case of Rekha, it's different. Only she can pull it off with grace. Great genetics I must say!!
@@prezkrk I differ. I've seen a woman in her 70s get the love of her life! I am an eyewitness to this scenario.
She was 55 in the interview. She looks absolutely fabulous. Bollywood ddnt make use of such beautiful and talented actress.
Kate Blanchett can be super villain in Marvel movie at 49. Why can't she be casted in good films?
This remains by far the most comprehensive interview ever on the ULTIMATE DIVA and I believe it will always remain. I just like to see her work and work and work. Nothing but good health and lots of love to you Rekha Mam.
Equally for Smt. Simi Garewal who will in perpetuity have a feather on her cap which perhaps no other may ever get for such an insight interview on the ULTIMATE DIVA.
I think Rekha is one of the most gorgeous women in the world. In fact, I think she just gets more beautiful with age. BUT I also think she has a lack of a loving male presence in her life that has affected her permanently and made her very defensive. And I also think her difficult childhood has made her quite cold, and emotionally guarded. You can tell she does not enjoy talking about her childhood because she has compartmentalized it. Unfortunately I can relate to this insecurity. I was raised without the love of a father and forced to grow up fast, and it has made me quite distrustful and Machiavellian and guarded, especially around men. When she said 'I was too shy to open my mouth when there was male company' I can totally relate to that. When I look at Rehka I can see the knowing in her eyes, but I think its to mask the look of vulnerability. And it is something I can relate to. We are damaged by a lack of a loving father and vulnerable, we have had to develop a hard shell. And we are looking for the loving indulgent father figure we never had. Rekha has decided it's better to be alone and in love with the 'fantasy' male figure than risk being hurt again. When she says she has healed, I really think she has just hardened herself.
very true.....
God bless you
I lost my father when I was nine yes old..same insecurity still I feel
It's BOTOX..... 🤣 AND She sure will not age for at least a few years 😜
Can any one tell me how Rekha has an elder brother and a younger brother and how Her mother had 6 children ? I am confused. Why every one blame only Gemini ?
H. L. ft
Perhaps the transparency in her thoughts makes her so different from any other actresses of her age. She is gorgeously intelligent in her own way. Lot to learn from such personality. 🙏
Gemini ganeshan was just a huge romance star but now everyone know him as rekha's dad hope he had acknowledged his own daughter
He had
Rekha ji is the epitome of beauty. I don't know how many times I have watched this episode. The talking style between the two people and the special bonding, which I never saw in any interview really made me to watch your video without even skipping once. I admire you a lot Simi mam. This is the real type of talk shows we need in this era. So much clear cut view of the lives of these people. You have such a Personality mam. Rekha ji is such a humble person. A women's mind is deeper than the ocean is truly proved here.
rightly said when i see these kinda shows and these personalities it brings something different something iconic ,its so nice to just walk through the lifes of such deep great actors and especially rekha ji (whose beauty will never fade i guess
She is evergreen. No other than her. Struggled much in life. Admiring personality.
rekha baniya she will be forever evergreen,may u should ask her the secret recepie
I needed to hear this. When she said she healed….gives me hope. That healing is possible. Trauma does heal. There is a light at the end of this tunnel.
😊
I came here after my english tutor said to see the interviews to improve my english and also we can learn how to handle that question and answer spontaneously.
She is the personification of sheer substance, elegance, strength and Bollywood splendour
rekha is not only stunning...with her sharp beautiful features...she has an amazing voice as well....God bless u
How time change to from then to now.. beautifully questioned and soothingly answered. Simi is all time best host. Rakha is gem
Rekhas such a beautiful human being inside and out..with so much hurt and pain she went through not only in her love life but even as a kid....shes so positive about everything and everyone...not everyone has the courage to hold themselves together after going through so much in life.
I'm looking at this video after watching the film Mahanati (nadigaiyar thilagam) and realizing gorgeous Rekha also daughter of Gemini Ganesan ..
Such a great personality Rekha is.. 👍👏

She's a mysterious creature❤️✨ People can't resist falling in love with her charming personality. Love you Rekha ma'am. Wish if you and Amitabh Sir had married, such perfect couple!💗💗💖💖
Both are so articulate in carrying out this free-flowing conversation.
I grew up watching this beautiful woman in the 80s onwards and watching this interview is great to get to know how it was for her growing up
I am south indian iyer
A fan of Gemini ganesan
The way Rekha gives her reply so much impressed
Even though so many people hurted her she never minded.so great
Daily I am watching thisvshiw
I am great fan of Rekha
A great lady.no one can be compared with her
Rewatching this interview years later, I have new found love admiration of Ms. Rekha. I am able to see no much more depth in whatever she says. I am stunned at the comments people too - people are really revolved. So much to learn from this interview and the comments on this interview. You all are amazing !
watching this interview in October 2019!!! Still mesmerized.❤️❤️
Watching this rendezvous, I'm feeling confident and her words are really helping me. I've gone through so much pain and suffering. Thank you Simi ji ,it is through you we knowing their struggles, and I really feel emphatic towards her.
This channel has the best comment section in the whole of TH-cam. Intelligent, thoughtful discussions and comments, mainly positive and a few contradictory. This gives me hope that people can still be appreciative and praising about others' lives without being judgemental about the choices one made.
Simi ma'm's questions show us the raw and the vulnerable side of the interviewee, which makes this show a delight to watch!
I have been an ardent fan of Simi ji, I idolise her, her poise, her intelligence, her beauty and most importantly her grace.
Thanks a lot Simi ji for making this show available on TH-cam! I come back to them again and again....
The clips of this interview is like going viral on Instagram. .so being rekha and Amitabhs fan .. so i am here to watch full interview
That poise, that grace, that elegance
REKHA - the epitome of graciousness
Is it the beautiful guest or the graceful host that I come back to this interview again and again. Ms.Garewal you are a text book to all aspiring TV hosts. For you, it is never about extracting an answer, the guest just feels so homey in your presence that they just share their experiences with you without any slightest coercion. The video of Rekhaji's pet just melted my heart and I can see that Rekha ji too was sweetly touched by this gesture from you (I would love to know how she felt after receiving her copy ). I wish you could continue your show ............loads of love and stay well
most beatiful women
When I was a teenager [1970s] in Bandra, I would see her often, early am, on my way to school [St Theresa's HS] where she had a family member that she was dropping off in her white chauffeured Premier Padmini. Even though I was always in uniform [grey half-pants, white shirt and clip-on tie] - I swear she checked me out and smiled at me.
Great show SimiJi - I stumbled on here looking for Tiger Pataudi's videos. Cheers.
I think u r lucky to have met her. I am going to India from Russia to have a look at her
Love the way Simi brings out of best in people, though they're already lovely 🤍🤍🤍 but the calmness Simi oozes! ✨
I am huge fan of Rekha's voice, her sense of dressing and way of carrying herself....such a Diva❤️
she is so guarded in her words. it just shows she is not free at all. she has to think well n then say her answers. its so clear she didnt hv a smooth upbringing. afterall that she"s been through its really grt what she made of herself today. hats off to her.
I was so wrong about her until today.. I was so wrong😪 what a lady👏🙏💖
My whole perception of her changed.. She is a gem🙏🙏 God bless u🙏
This interview needs to be done again, now that almost ANOTHER 20 years have passed 🥰🎉
Thanks you for all these beautiful episodes. I love listening to people's stories, to learn about why they succeeded, failed, lessons they've learned, how they picked themselves up, and forged ahead! I hope that all these lessons makes me a better person... Thank you ma'am. -from your fan here in Nigeria!
I'm watching This 100th episode of Rendezvous show for the first time and I can't explain how joyful I'm feeling from inside by knowing about life of a legendary person Rekha. This is a fantastic show! I really loved it!
