Rekha and Jaya Bachchan Spotted Together at a Book Launch Function - Chehere by Gautam Rajadhakshya

Actresses Rekha and Jaya Bachchan were spotted together at the launch of Chehere, a coffee table book compiled by celebrity photographer Gautam Rajadhakshya, in Mumbai. The function was held on 18th June 2010.

Also accompanying them was Asha Bhosle, who was looking lost, caught between the two.

While Amitabh Bachchan is always known for giving a royal ignore to Rekha, did his wife Jaya extend an olive branch to the actress. Not Really.

Rekha and Jaya bury the hatchet?

Rekha's relationship with Big B is something that's always had a lot of mystery attached to it. The frequent co-stars in the 80s had amazing on-screen chemistry, and it was probably helped by the speculation about their off-screen relationship. Years later, the two (and even Big B's family) rarely come face-to-face. So when Big B's wife Jaya Bachchan and Rekha were at the same function, and even met each other, everyone was wondering what they talked about.

According to sources, Rekha approached Jaya while she was chatting with singer Asha Bhonsle and wished her. Catching Jaya unaware, she extended her arms towards her and hugged her warmly. But what shocked all was Jaya Bachchan’s cold reaction towards the actress; she just turned away from Rekha and resumed her chat with Asha Bhonsle.

Jaya Bachchan was hosting the event but she never requested Rekha, who was seen sitting secluded, to come on stage. She did not even mention her name while naming the leading ladies of Bollywood. Ironically, she mentioned the name of Padmini Kulhapure amongst good actresses of the past but Rekha was ignored throughout the event.

Padmini Kolhapure, Hema Malini, Kajol, Rekha, Sooraj Barjatya and Khayyam were also present at the function.
