Rekha said she was unattractive and plump, Sanjay Khan refused to do photoshoot with her
Veteran actress Rekha's entry into Bollywood was facilitated by Zarine Khan, mother of actor Sanjay Khan. Rekha revealed that Sanjay Khan was initially hesitant to photograph her, deeming her not conventionally attractive. Zarine Khan's insistence on Rekha's 'beautiful eyes and lovely mouth' led to the photoshoot that launched her film career. Farah Khan Ali shared this anecdote, also mentioning her father's role in introducing Parveen Babi to films.
