On her birthday today while wishing Rekha ji health, peace and happiness, I dedicate this obvious song having word / shabd “REKHA” as my choice of the day… “REKHA O REKHA JAB SE TUMHEN DEKHA”.. Bhanurekha Ganesan, better known by her stage name Rekha, was born in Chennai to Tamil actor Gemini Ganesan and Telugu actress Pushpavalli. Although she is half-Tamil and half-Telugu, she considers Telugu as her mother tongue as she was brought up speaking only Telugu at her home. Rekha started her career in 1966 as a child actress in the Telugu film Rangula Ratnam, which won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Telugu for that year, though her film debut as a lead happened four years later with Sawan Bhadon. Despite the success of several of her early films, it was not until the mid-to-late 1970s that she got recognition as an actress. Rekha has acted in over 180 films in a career spanning over 40 years. Throughout her career, she has often played strong female characters and, apart from mainstream cinema, appeared inparallel cinema. She has won three Filmfare Awards, two for Best Actress and one for Best Supporting Actress, and the National Film Award for Best Actress.
