Rekha-Vinod Mehra: Rekha has been that actress of the Bollywood industry whose personal life has always grabbed more headlines than her professional life.

There are so many love stories, whose mention remains confined somewhere in the pages of history, while some love stories become immortal forever. Even today everyone knows about the love story of Bollywood's beauty queen Rekha with Amitabh Bachchan. But her marriage with Vinod Mehra remains a mystery even today.
Rekha is that personality, whose life has been as beautiful from above, as much turmoil from inside. Neither did I get my father's love, nor did I get a chance to live my childhood properly. When Rekha, who did not get the happiness of family, dreamed of starting her own family so that she too would have a husband, children... then this too could not be fulfilled. Yearning for love, yet kept coming forward with a smile on her face for the camera.
Rekha always remained a part of the headlines because of her personal life. Amitabh Bachchan's story started to fade, then discussions of an affair and secret marriage with Vinod Mehra started. Rekha's marriage with Vinod was always hidden in the circle of questions. Years ago, Rekha broke her silence on this and exposed the four-decades-old truth.
In the year 2004, Rekha participated in Simi Garewal's show Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, where she answered all the questions related to her personal life. In this, she was also asked the question of secretly marrying Vinod Mehra, which she was shocked to hear. Actually, Rekha and Vinod Mehra started in the 70s. Their pairing was one of the most liked couples in the 1970s. Their friendship gradually turned into love.
It is said that Rekha and Vinod were in a relationship. Both had married in 1973. But nothing officially came out on this. In such a situation, when Rekha was asked the question of marrying Vinod, she remained stunned. He categorically denied this question asked in Simi Grewal's show. Rekha said, “Anybody can say anything. It is not important to me, so I would not like to say anything about it. He was always my well-wisher and he was very close to me.
Rekha's affair with Amitabh Bachchan was the talk of the town in those days. Her personal life also came into the limelight due to the news of her secret marriage with Vinod Mehra.

After all the upheavals, Rekha finally married businessman Mukesh Aggarwal in 1990. It is said that Mukesh was suffering from depression and Rekha was not aware of it. After a few months of marriage, when Rekha was in London, Mukesh committed suicide. He had left behind a note which read, 'Don't blame anyone'.
