Rekha’s close friend Bina Ramani talked about their relationship. She said, ‘At that time Rekha wanted Amitabh Bachchan to accept their relationship in front of everyone.’ According to Bina Ramani, Rekha wanted that their relationship should not be hidden and it should be known to everyone, but this could not happen because Amitabh Bachchan was married to Jaya Bachchan at that time and was becoming active in politics.

Bina Ramani first told about Rekha’s childhood and her emotions. He said that Rekha, born as an illegitimate child of actor Gemini Ganesan, grew up without a stable family structure, which had a deep impact on her.
