Did you know Bachchan once calmed Rekha during intense scene
In a 1994 interview with Dinesh Rajeha, Rekha recalled a challenging scene where she had to deliver emotional lines in front of 15,000 people.
She recalled, "I had major lines to speak, crying and all. Then Amitji related an incident. He said, James Dean faced a similar dilemma. He just turned around and urinated in front of the crowd. James Dean thought to himself, 'Isse bura kya ho sakta hai?' and gave a perfect shot."
