Bollywood’s ultimate diva, Rekha made fans swoon over her sheer charm and grace with her regal photoshoot for the Vogue Arabia cover. She looked gorgeous and charismatic in all these shiny gold and bold ensembles by none other than Manish Malhotra.

Check out some of the jaw-dropping clicks of this ever-young and graceful diva!

Despite being known to millions as Bollywood’s ultimate diva, Rekha remains an enigma, but above all, she is a woman of passion, dedicating her heart and soul to everything she does.

Epitomizing grace and elegance, the superstar is pictured on her first-ever Vogue cover and delved into a one-of-a-kind conversation.

Bollywood’s forever icon Rekha, with a career featuring more than 300 films, has not taken on any acting role since 2014 and has not been interviewed in two decades.

She shared,

Whether I make films or not, it never leaves me. I have my memories to relive what I love. And when the time is right, the right project will find me.

An artiste in every aspect, she emerged as the true mastermind behind her first Vogue cover shoot, fully immersing herself by lending her know-how, elevated taste, and understanding of iconic photography.

For this special project, she had the support of Indian couturier Manish Malhotra who dressed the star in a wardrobe of regalia curated and mostly designed by himself.

At 69 years old and with more than 300 films to her name, Rekha remains a sweetheart of the Indian film industry, revered by Bollywood megastars and a new generation of young actors and audiences alike.

In 2010, she was conferred the Padma Shri, one of India’s highest civilian awards, by the President of India for distinguished service of the arts.

Her first interview in two decades sees her reflect on her special connection with her mother, her love for cinema, and her commitment to being the best version of herself.
