It was on October 11, 2002, when Mr Bachchan celebrated his birthday with his family and loved ones at the Marriott in Mumbai. As per multiple reports, Rekha made her way in her elaborate traditional look, surprising everyone. Uninvited, Rekha was spotted entering the lobby of the hotel with her secretary, Farzana. Seeing the other woman at the hotel, many guests were shocked, and the word spread like wildfire. Within moments, the press reached the spot, and the Umrao Jaan was chased by the photographers and media.
Despite her eagerness to be seen next to her man on the momentous occasion of his birthday, Rekha panicked. She knew that if she was caught gatecrashing the superstar’s birthday bash with whom she was always linked, things would not go down well with him or his family. Without getting out of the hotel, she locked herself in the nearest washroom of the hotel and stayed there until the media left.
