Birthday special: Evergreen songs of the legendary actress Rekha

Veteran actress Rekha is one of the most gorgeous and talented actresses in Bollywood. She has been in the industry for the past 50 years and has starred in some amazing movies. Apart from her performances, Rekha is known for her expressions and dance moves in songs.

Today, she celebrates her 66th birthday, so let’s look at the list of the evergreen songs of the legendary actress…


In Aankhon Ki Masti

We have to start the list with the song In Aankhon Ki Masti from Umrao Jaan. Rekha’s dance moves were beautiful in the track and her expressions stole everyone’s heart. The actress won a National Award for her performance in the movie.

Salam-E-Ishq Meri Jaan

Rekha surely knew how to perform mujra dance numbers. The song from Salam-E-Ishq Meri Jaan from the film Muqaddar Ka Sikandar is one of the popular songs of the actress. It was quite different from In Aankhon Ki Masti and Rekha’s dance moves were surely the highlight in it.

Pardesia

Well, we have heard a couple of recreated versions and remixes of the song Pardesia from the movie Mr. Natwarlal. But, the original song featuring Rekha and Amitabh Bachchan has its own charm.

Mann Kyoon Behka

Mann Kyoon Behka from the film Utsav is surely one of the most beautiful classic numbers. The song was composed by Laxmikant – Pyarelal, and sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle. Rekha looked simply stunning in the song.

Yeh Kahaan Aa Gaye Hum

Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha starred in multiple movies together and their chemistry used to be the highlight of the movies. The song Yeh Kahaan Aa Gaye Hum from Silsila was a beautiful romantic track and we got to see sparkling chemistry between Rekha and Big B in the song.

Hanste Hanste Kat Jaayen Raaste

Hanste Hanste Kat Jaayen Raaste from Khoon Bhari Maang is a cheerful number. Featuring Rakesh Roshan and Rekha, the song is still loved by one and all. Also, Rekha’s performance in the film was appreciated a lot.

In The Night No Control

In 1996, Rekha starred in Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi and was seen romancing Akshay Kumar in it. The actress is 13 years older than Akshay, but her chemistry with him in the song In The Night No Control proved that age is just a number.

Tom Felton returns as Draco Malfoy in Broadway’s 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child'

For the first time since the final Harry Potter film wrapped over a decade ago, Tom Felton is returning to the wizarding world, but not on screen. Instead, the actor is headed to Broadway, where he’ll take on the role of an adult Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. The stage production, which continues the story 19 years after the original books, will now feature one of its most iconic characters portrayed by the man who first brought him to life.

Felton will join the cast at New York’s Lyric Theatre beginning 11 November 2025, for a limited 19-week run until 22 March 2026. This also marks his Broadway debut, making the moment doubly significant. Not only is he the first actor from the original film series to step into the stage version of the Potter universe, but he’ll be playing Draco at the exact age the character is in the play, creating a rare full-circle moment for both the actor and the fans.

Deepika Padukone still part of ‘Kalki 2’ say sources as exit rumours spread

There’s been a whirlwind of speculation surrounding Deepika Padukone’s association with two of the most high-profile films in Indian cinema right now: Spirit and Kalki 2898 AD Part 2. The latest buzz claims she might be walking out of Kalki 2, but the truth appears far less dramatic.

While social media and gossip pages have been buzzing with unconfirmed reports suggesting Deepika demanded fixed eight-hour shifts post-motherhood, allegedly causing trouble on set, the reality is, Kalki 2 hasn’t even started filming. In fact, it’s still in pre-production. No actors, including Deepika, have officially been signed or begun any work on the sequel, according to sources close to the film.

Beyoncé kicks off Cowboy Carter tour in rainy London with surprise family moment and golden bull spectacle

Beyoncé brought her Cowboy Carter tour to London this week, kicking off the European leg with a wild and unforgettable night at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Despite steady rain and grey skies, fans showed up in full force, dressed in cowboy boots, denim, fringe, and rhinestones, turning the downpour into what many cheekily called a "rain-aissance."


Dancing through the downpour

Beyoncé, wearing a sparkling American flag, inspired jumpsuit, did not miss a beat. “The rain feels so good!” she shouted, flashing a grin, as cheers erupted from the crowd.

Some fans had flown in from as far as Mexico and Israel, proving Beyoncé’s global pull. For many, it was not just a concert. In fact, it was a chance to witness a once-in-a-lifetime tour.

Big moments and an even bigger meaning

The nearly three-hour show delivered one jaw-dropping moment after another. Beyoncé rode a golden mechanical bull during Tyrant and later glided above the audience in a floating horseshoe while performing Jolene. The production was slick and true to Beyoncé’s unmatched sense of showmanship.

But beyond the dazzling visuals, the performance had a strong emotional core. One of the most touching highlights came when Beyoncé brought her daughters, Blue Ivy and Rumi, on stage during Protector.

A tribute to heritage and legacy

The Cowboy Carter tour goes beyond glitz. With this album, Beyoncé reclaims the often-overlooked legacy of Black musicians in country music. Throughout the show, she acknowledged these roots, weaving in powerful tributes and subtle nods to history and resilience.

Some ticket drama but no regrets

Some fans grumbled about ticket prices, especially after seeing last-minute price cuts. Tickets initially sold for up to £950 (₹99,500) but later dropped to £141 (₹14,800) for similar seats.

But as the final notes of 16 Carriages rang out, none of that seemed to matter. Beyoncé had given them something unforgettable: a stormy, sparkling night with a star who still knows how to surprise.

Bollywood superstition with numerology fails to save films from flop fate

Whether it is dud decisions, awful acting, nepotism, terrible writing, sloppy direction, an actor in his late 50s playing a hero in his 20s, or misguided marketing, there is a lot that can be logically blamed for a Bollywood film flopping.

But in Hindi cinema – where logic is often missing – many in the industry still believe the spelling of titles and star names can determine a film’s fate. Yes, you read that correctly. They think a few extra letters can magically make all the difference.
