Summary: Rekha stole glances and the show during a special screening of Umrao Jaan, in a stunning gold anarkali-lehenga by Manish Malhotra. Her appearance pays homage to her memorable role of "Umrao Jaan".

At the recent Umrao Jaan memorial screening, veteran actress Rekha dazzled on the red carpet in a stunning gold suit designed by Manish Malhotra. Rekha looked like a queen in her handmade chikankari and badla anarkali kurta and sparkling gold tissue lehenga.

A Banarasi dupatta crafted from real gold and silver threads completed the regal look. Every detail, from the delicate stitching to the way it flowed, mirrored the beauty of her renowned performance as Umrao Jaan.
