Rekha has Bollywood bowing to her golden Kanjivaram saris

It's her birthday today and we can't stop ourselves from raving about Rekha's golden Kanjivaram saris, which have still not found any competition in Bollywood.

Silk saris in shades of gold and cream, worn with heavy traditional jewellery have become synonymous with the enigmatic actress.

62, but still a style icon, Rekha deserves all the credit when it comes to making saris such a popular choice amongst Bollywood celebrities.

Usually sporting sindoor (Vermillion) along with her rich nine yards, the actress has Bollywood actors vying for attention, whenever she's spotted at award functions.

So much so is the hysteria behind the saris that they have become popular as 'Rekha silk saris' in local markets.

Open hair and deep red lips complete the look for the ageless diva.
