Archana recalls chat with Rekha
She captioned the post, "When I saw Rekhaji's Sawan Bhadon, I was a kid living in a small town with hardly a hope of ever visiting Bombay... and definitely no hope of ever meeting her personally !! Then years later I worked with her in Ladai where she called me to her makeup room and advised me on makeup and how to put on fake eyelashes, a trend she was credited with having started in Bollywood (heart eyes emoji)."
When Rekha spoke about a ‘he’ with Archana
"I have memories of us in a Filmcity lawn chatting about this and that, and when I questioned her about who this 'he' she was referring to was, she countered with a 'you don't know who HE is'? (Grinning face with smiling eyes and face with sunglasses emojis). She is warm, she is irrepressible, she is a living legend, and it has been an absolute delight to know her and meet her each time!! Dreams do come true for small kids from small hometowns (face holding back tears and two hearts emojis)."
Archana concluded her note, "Thank you, Rekhaji, for rocking the episode that night. Shall never forget the iconic live performance with @krushna30 that night (red heart emoji)! @netflix_in."
