Bollywood jodis you may never see again

July 11, 2006
Amitabh Bachchan-Rekha

Reams have been written about Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha. And more than two decades later, people still want to read about the equation between them.

The duo may have acted together in films like Mr Natwarlal and Muqaddar Ka Sikandar but think of Amitabh-Rekha and the first film that springs to most people's mind is Silsila. The film had Jaya Bahaduri as Amitabh Bachchan's wife and Rekha as the other woman in their life, though she is married to Sanjeev Kumar in the film.

Silsila was made at a time when the buzz about the Amitabh-Rekha relationship was at its peak.

Director Yash Chopra pulled off a casting coup by convincing all the actors ready to do the film but unfortunately, Silsila did not do well at the box office.

Twenty five years later, it seems unlikely that Amitabh and Rekha will share a frame again.
