"Ek baar hum Rekha ji ke sath baithe hue the, vo itne ache se bariki se pakdti hai. Apse 5 minute baat kar legi, apki awaz, apki expressions hubahu, vo alag baat hai yeh sharmati hai. Lekin apka talent mai ne dekha hai, vo mere dil mein yaad hai jo humesha rahegi."

She went there and told her how she was her biggest fan and said that she wish God blesses her with a daughter like her in her next birth. Recalling the incident, Rekha said:
"Suniye na, she invited me on her birthday party. In front of every I had told her, mai ne kaha, 'Lata didi I am your biggest fan aur agar bhagwanji meri baat ap sun rahe thai toh ap agle janam mein mujhe Lata ji jaisi beti jarrur dena. Toh unhone palat kar, kaha, 'Agle janam mien kyo, mai isi janam mein apki beti hoon."
Rekha added that she started calling her mother from that day onwards. The veteran actress revealed that she came to her the same night and said:
"Vo usi waqt mere pass aye, kehti, 'Mumma.' Vo din hai or aaj ka din hai abhi bhi mere kaano mein unki awaj gunjti hai. Maa."
