Were REKHA & RAKESH ROSHAN mere puppets in the hands of DESTINY? — Devdas “Kusum” ------------------------------ 25th March, 1981 a real life incident at the shooting of “MADHURI” the FILM ------------------------------ A Reaction of a Journalist friend..... Compelling a renowned & famous Journalist and Press Photographer Devdas “Kusum” known for his friendly heartwarming behaviour towards one and all to literally kill his professional self by Rekha - the Actress of Film “MADHURI” supported by the then upcoming Actor, Rakesh Roshan. http://www.KUSUM.com ------------------------------ But, my inner self still insists that it was '' DESTINY '' and that REKHA & RAKESH ROSHAN were mere puppets in its hands. ------------------------------ It was my peak time then..... Nationally, Internationally my written Articles & Photographs were being published regularly in every known publication in every language. PRO of Film “MADHURI” invited me to shoot the film stars Rekha and Rakesh Roshan at Madh Island, Mumbai, INDIA and He came along with me in my car to the location. Earlier on various different locations and at different dates, days and times I had shot Photographs of Rekha. Quite a few of them had already appeared with credit to me in reputed publications of that time. I was visualizing inside as to how best I would bring her out in Photographs at that location.

If she is displeased my future ends here.” Hearing Rakesh Roshan I simply opened my Camera handed over the Colour Roll to him without uttering any word. He gave it to Rekha who seemed to derive immense sadiastic pleasure in throwing my hard work into the Madh River waters. Seeing all this all people around said lot of nasty things about Rekha.. But my mind reminded me that it was all “DESTINED” AND that REKHA & RAKESH ROSHAN were pre-assigned by its hands. Although I accepted all this as part and parcel of life, yet this did not bring any comfort to my mind. I felt horribly depressed. In that depressed state of my mind while driving back home, I threw my expensive Camera and Acc.
