Controversies | • 15-year-old Rekha became a victim of a controversy during the shoot of her 'supposed' debut film, Anjana Safar. According to an excerpt from Rekha's biography, the scene featuring Rekha and Biswajeet Chatterjee, the male lead, was supposed to be a short romantic scene with no intimate/offensive actions. However, when the camera rolled, Biswajeet grabbed Rekha and started to smooch her. The director kept yelling 'cut' but the lead actor was in no mood to stop. The Biography further alleges that both the actor and the director had planned out this heinous act for their personal and commercial benefits respectively. |
