You must remember veteran Hindi cinema actress Rakhee Gulzar. Fans were crazy about the actress' smile and lovely eyes. She garnered a lot of limelight on screen with her role as lead actress and then as a mother. 'Mere Karan Arjun Aayenge' is one of her famous dialogues. The popularity of this role in the movie is still intact. However, now she is living a quiet life away from the glamour of films.
Rakhee Gulzar's magic was such in her time that fans would wait for hours to catch a glimpse of her. Famous director Yash Chopra even wrote a film after seeing her, named 'Kabhi-Kabhi'. Actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Neetu Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor were seen with her in this movie. People were so crazy about her that lyricist Sahir Ludhianvi wrote the song 'Kabhi-Kabhi Mere Dil Mein Khayal Aata Hai' for Rakhee. Sunil Dutt was also a big fan of her.
The Karan-Arjun star has won 2 National Awards, 3 Filmfare Awards and Padma Shri in her long career. She has faced many difficulties in her personal life. In an interview, the actress had said, 'I respect my willpower and self-respect a lot, I will never do any film or work that I don't like'.
Today, the 77-year-old actress is living her life in the valleys away from the noise of the city. She once said, 'Now I do not need money, I do my work myself and am living a happy life with animals.' She is reportedly taking care of dogs, cows and birds at her farmhouse in Panvel.
Born in 1947 during the independence movement, Rakhee made her debut in 1967 with the Bengali film 'Bondu Boron Aur Baghini'. After this, she moved to Mumbai and never looked back. Two years after coming to the city, she got Rajshri Production's film 'Jeevan Mrityu' (1970) in which Dharmendra was seen opposite her. Apart from this, she did 'Sharmili' with Shashi Kapoor which was loved by the audience. Later, the actress appeared in films like 'Laal Patthar' and 'Paras' and became famous as a lead actress.
