Flashback Friday: When Hema Malini was super elated on seeing Rekha at her birthday party; watch video

In Bollywood, they say two actresses can never be friends. The rivalry, the ego battle and the race to outdo each other seem to always come in between their friendship. However this notion of ‘cat-fight’ has been busted by several actresses who share a great camaraderie both on and off screen.

Recently, we all got to witness the great bond shared by veteran actresses Hema Malini and Rekha when a video from the former’s 70th birthday party surfaced on social media. The way both Rekha and Hema are elated to see each other will truly warm your heart.

The viral video is from Hema Malini’s 70th birthday bash which she hosted in 2018. Upon seeing Rekha arriving at her party, Hema expresses her childlike excitement and then gives a warm welcome to the Silsila actress. The two iconic actresses then greet each other by sharing a warm hug. The happiness on meeting each other is so evident on their faces. Rekha even touches Hema’s feet as a mark of respect for the senior actress.
