Rekha's 1990 marriage to industrialist Mukesh Aggarwal ended within months, and he died by suicide soon after — after which she faced heavy and unfair press blame for a private tragedy.
- Married
- 1990, to Mukesh Aggarwal
- Outcome
- Brief marriage; his death by suicide
In 1990 Rekha married Delhi-based businessman Mukesh Aggarwal. The marriage was brief and unhappy, and the couple separated within months. Not long afterward, Aggarwal died by suicide.
In the aftermath, parts of the media subjected Rekha to intense and often cruel blame and innuendo over the death of a man she had been married to only briefly. She largely refused to engage with the coverage, and the episode is remembered as one of the harshest the press has directed at her.
