When Rajeswari took on Rekha, Hema Malini

We asked readers to tell us if they had grown up or studied with movie or television celebrities. And we got a great response!

Sharing his memories is Anand Gopalan, who studied with Rajeswari Sachdeva. 

I was in the same batch as Rajeswari (her name in school was Raj Kaur then) in Little Angel's School in Sion, Mumbai.

She was very talented and used to mimic most of the heroines. I remember once during our 10th class camp, we were sitting around the campfire, when she started mimicking a line from a movie. It went like this: 'Main tume pani pila pila ke marungi.' She would say it in Rekha's and Hema Malini's style. It was fun.

After school, she went to Khalsa College. Later, she started appearing in Shyam Benegal's movies. We knew her dad was a television actor and that he had appeared in the Nukkad series. It is good to know someone from our school has done so well in the entertainment industry.
