When someone says Koi Mil Gaya (2003), we think of Jadoo. But the sci-fi drama also boasted of talent in two distinct forms—on the one hand was the raw talent of Hrithik Roshan, then an emerging star. On the other hand was the enduring magic of Rekha, whose skill only burnishes and shines brighter with the passage of years. As Koi Mil Gaya releases in theatres again to mark its 20th anniversary today, the usually reclusive Rekha says she is proud to have been part of director-friend Rakesh Roshan’s film. “Guddu-ji [has the ability] to catch dreams from the clouds and translate them into beautiful films,” she says.
