'Loveyapa,' the big-screen debut film of Junaid Khan, was celebrated at a star-studded screening hosted by
Aamir Khan on Tuesday. The event drew a crowd of celebrities, including
Dharmendra, Rekha, Shabana Azmi, and Rajkumar Santoshi. A memorable moment that went viral showed
Rekha touching Rajkumar Santoshi's feet upon her arrival at the venue.
Dressed in an ivory and golden sari at the screening, Rekha arrived at the venue and greeted filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi by touching his feet. She then offered Aamir Khan an adaab and shared a warm hug with Dharmendra. The event highlighted not only the film but also the deep respect and connection among Bollywood's iconic figures. Interestingly, the actress wears sindoor not only because she finds it aesthetically pleasing but also because she considers it a fashionable choice. She has expressed that wearing sindoor is a personal decision that holds significant meaning for her. In various interviews, she has stated that she appreciates how it looks on her and has described it as a style statement.
After the screening, Rekha appeared a bit emotional about the performances of the star cast and congratulated Aamir. She also posed for pictures with Dharmendra. At one point in a video from the event, it seemed like she was bending down to touch the legendary actor’s feet, reflecting her deep respect for him. The actress was also seen pampering a dog that walked into the frame while she was posing for photographers at an event.
