'Rekha is beauty personified'

  • 'Rekha is beauty personified'
Rekha will turn 60 Friday and her "Super Naani" co-star Shreya is in awe of her ageless beauty and says that the National Award winning actress will never age.
 
"Even at 60, she retains her charm and beauty. Like the (monument) Taj Mahal, she will never grow old," Shreya told IANS on phone from Mumbai.
 
"October 10 is Rekhaji's birthday. She is beauty personified, in mind, body and soul. In 'Super Naani', you will get to see her again," added the actress who plays Rekha's daughter-in-law in the film, which is scheduled for a release later this month.
 
Director of hits like "Dil", "Beta" and "Grand Masti", Indra Kumar has wielded the megaphone for "Super Naani". 
 
"I have learnt a lot from Rekhaji, her discipline and total commitment. She starts her day with yoga and exercises, looks fresh the whole day. We have learnt what dedication means from her," said Shreya.
 
In her over four-decade career Rekha may have worked in over 150 films, including "Ghar", "Umrao Jaan", "Khoobsurat" and "Izajat", but she never reads her scripts, said Shreya and added that the senior actor gives more importance to listening to her lines.
 
Shreya, who was noticed in "Sahib, Bibi Aur Gangster" and "Mahua", is planning to visit the Taj city soon.
