Rekha at 70: Bollywood's Eternal Diva
As Rekha turns 70, her legacy as one of Bollywood’s most enduring icons continues to captivate fans across generations. Known for her glamour, talent, and enigma, Rekha has blazed a trail for women in Indian cinema, cementing her place as a transformative figure in the industry.
Rekha, born Bhanurekha in Chennai in 1954, entered Bollywood in her teens, largely driven by her family’s financial struggles. Despite her lack of fluency in Hindi and a male-dominated industry, she rose to fame in the 1970s. She faced severe criticism early on, with body-shaming and harsh scrutiny of her appearance, but Rekha’s resilience and determination helped her break through.
Her transformation, both physical and professional, became legendary. Rekha became known for her candid interviews and fearless persona, defying societal norms of the time. She was unapologetically open about her relationships, which often placed her at the center of media scandals.
However, Rekha reinvented herself, mastering the art of makeup, fitness, and acting. Her performances in films like Ghar (1978), Khoobsurat (1980), and the iconic Umrao Jaan (1981) showcased her versatility and emotional depth, earning her critical acclaim and a National Award.
Though her personal life often overshadowed her career, including a brief and tragic marriage to businessman Mukesh Aggarwal, Rekha withdrew from public life, choosing to fiercely protect her privacy. This only added to the aura of mystery surrounding her, making her a beloved figure even today.
Despite making fewer public appearances, Rekha’s timeless appeal endures. Her grace and enigmatic presence have made her a true diva, and her influence on Indian cinema remains unmatched, with fans still cherishing every moment she shares with the world.

Netflix Adds Millions of Subscribers But Growth Slows
Netflix on Thursday said it added more than five million subscribers in the recently ended quarter but signaled slowing growth. BSS news.
The streaming juggernaut said it ended September with 282.7 million subscribers, reporting a profit of $2.4 billion on revenue that jumped 15 percent to $9.8 billion compared with the same period a year earlier.
Netflix said it continued to build up its US advertising business, which is on track to launch in Canada by the end of this year and in other countries in 2025.
"We've delivered on our plan to reaccelerate our business, and we're excited to finish the year strong with a great slate (of shows)," the streaming television powerhouse said in a letter to investors.
Shows set for release on Netflix this quarter include a second season of the global hit "Squid Game."
The dystopian Korean horror tale about a fictional, deadly game show remains by far the most-watched Netflix TV series ever.
Netflix this quarter will also stream a boxing match-up between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul as well as a pair of US National Football League games on Christmas.
The streamer said that membership on the ads plan grew 35 percent quarter-over-quarter and accounted for over half of sign-ups in countries where it's available.
Emarketer senior analyst Ross Benes warned that Netflix will need to be careful not to degrade the experience for viewers as it weaves ads into programming, and forecast that US ad revenue would be a small fraction of the money the company takes in.
Netflix said the average amount of time spent watching its platform grew in the recently-ended quarter, touting a string of hits including "The Perfect Couple", "Emily in Paris", and "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F".
