Rekha's Early Life and Career Shaped by Absent Father

Rekha, a famous actress, started acting because her family needed money after her dad left when she was a baby.

She didn't grow up with him, but her mom told her lovely stories about him.

Rekha saw her dad as a romantic figure from her mom's stories and films.

She didn't really feel like she had a father around and never felt he noticed her at all.

She was closer to her grandmother and aunt.

Later, a filmmaker named Mohan Sehgal became a father figure to her.

Despite the tough times, Rekha believes her life story is like a perfect movie script, and she wouldn't change anything.
