Rekha still killing it for the cover of Vogue Arabia

Rekha, 68, still killing it for the cover of Vogue Arabia!

Bollywood’s enigmatic icon has been featured on the latest cover of Vogue Arabia’s July/August 2023 issue styled by Manish Malhotra.

 

The Vogue Arabia feature on Rekha stands as a tribute to her iconic status and enduring legacy.

Speaking with Vogue Arabia, Rekha also explained why she has not starred in any project since 2014.

Rekha said, “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. My person is my own, but my cinematic persona is in the eyes of the beholder. Therefore I choose where I want to be and where I don’t want to be. I am so blessed to have earned the right to choose what I love. And to have the luxury to simply say no.”

 

In the Vogue Arabia interview, she added, “I have always lived like an Indian princess, not that anyone is privy to it. I live like that because I feel it. It’s not just a state of mind, but the state of my life.”

 

“My person is my own, but my cinematic persona is in the eyes of the beholder. Therefore I choose where I want to be and where I don’t want to be. I am so blessed to have earned the right to choose what I love. And to have the luxury of simply saying no. This keeps my soul alert,” said Rekha.

Talking about the feature becoming a reality, Rekha said, “I simply loved the way it chose me. The way Manuel, the editor-in-chief, followed his own instinct, and had the courage and kindness to ask me, was endearing and irresistible.”
