Good read
Great read however... I feel could have covered a lot more considering Rekha's reign in the industry. Also don't think it's worth £13.99.

Easy read about a Bollywood legend
Lacks depth. Likely reader found everything via third party. Easy ready.

Gossip mongering
This Usman guy was born with a silver spoon. A typical Lucknow Nababi Kababi who thinks low of people who do not come from the same social background.People like these can sell their souls very quickly

It’s a well known story
Rekha can’t be described by a book but this one tries.

Nice bio
Good book on the subject. Nothing wildly new was revealed, but is a good overview of her life and work.

Changed my opinion about Rekha after reading this book
I never knew about her wild past. I was familiar with her only from her times of being reclusive and reserved. Wow. How different she used to be.I've found this book excellent and bought it not only for Rekha's story, but to improve my writing skills. This author has such a beautiful and easy way of expressing himself. The book is very easy to read and engaging from beginning till the end.I was surprised to learn how Rekha would disregard *Spoiler* the fact that some of her interests were married. I think that's why she suffered so much in life... she wasn't able to understand that marriage is sacred and that we should not mess with married men.Also, she seems to disregard other kinds of agreements, like her filming timings, leading to more negative karma creation.I still love Rekha but wow, did I find much new information from this book. I think that the Indian readers already familiar with her won't find the book that eye-opening, but as a foreign person who was familiar with Bollywood only for several years I've found the book very much revealing.

A lot of reading between the lines.
A lot of things were speculative and felt flat when the people involved decided to comment on them.It was wonderful to read about Rekha, as someone who watched very few movies of hers with not much context it was eye-opening to read this book.I feel she has carried herself with dignity and wit which was uncanny and made me want to pat her on the back and give her a hug because of what she has to go through in her life.

Good but lacking
Too much emphasis was placed on her relationship with a particular individual. We needed more on her rather than him.
