Rekha is not married to Sanjay Dutt

No, Rekha is not married to Sanjay Dutt

Yesterday internet's favourite topic was Rekha and Sanjay Dutt's marriage. The internet was flooded with reports that veteran actress Rekha is married to actor Sanjay Dutt and it is he for whom the 62-year-old actress applies vermillion and not Megastar Amitab Bachchan. Many publications referred writer Yasser Usman’s book Rekha – The Untold Story as the source of the news. But let us tell you that these reports are fake. In fact, writer Yasser himself denied the reports. "This is wrong. Nothing of this sort has been mentioned in my book. People don't read properly," he said. "Rekha and Sanjay Dutt were working in a film together, probably Zameen Aasmaan (1984). The rumours of their affair surfaced at that time. In fact, some went on to say that they got married. These rumours became so strong that Sanjay Dutt had to deny the allegations in a magazine. It was an official denial," Yasser told a leading daily narrating the incident quoted in the book.
