Rekha's biography claims to tell the enigmatic star's 'untold story': Does it?

Firstpost  

Does Yasser Usman’s biography Rekha: The Untold Story really tell us things we didn’t already know? Yasser Usman’s book Rekha: The Untold Story was released by the publishing house Juggernaut a few days ago, and excerpts from it have been all over the internet. Of Bachchan’s feelings we get little, if any, indication, except for one comment that Usman elicits from one of his many interviews: It states that Rekha was probably an “ego trip” for Bachchan, that he was “class conscious” and never serious about the actress. Usman chooses to end his book with an epilogue which recounts what happened at the Star Screen Awards this January: Rekha who had just stepped off the stage after presenting a Best Actress award, rushed to Jaya Bachchan’s side to hug her when Amitabh was announced as the Best Actor.
