As a dedicated follower of Aditi Rao Hydari‘s career, I have been captivated by her enchanting performances and the depth she brings to each character she plays. Her birthday today serves as a perfect opportunity to reflect on her journey and the accolades she has received. One such moment that stands out is the heartfelt compliment from the legendary actress Rekha, which Aditi shared with Bollywood Life back in 2018.
38 years ago, on this very day, October 28th, 2024, a woman who has captivated me since I first saw her on the silver screen, Aditi Rao Hydari, was born. As an ardent admirer, I’ve been lucky to witness her mesmerizing performances in numerous Bollywood productions, which have solidified her as a beloved figure among film enthusiasts like myself.
In 2018, during an interview with Bollywood Life, Aditi Rao Hydari reminisced about the admiration and accolades she received for her portrayal of Mehrunisa in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmaavat. She hinted at sharing some thoughts without revealing specific details, but mentioned receiving a call from the esteemed actress Rekha.
She chuckled and said, “I won’t repeat word for word what she said, but here’s the gist: ‘From the depth of my heart, I pray for you. Your inner self aligns with your outer self.’ That sentiment means a lot to me. Furthermore, she mentioned, ‘You are who you are because of your parents,’ which I believe was an incredibly thoughtful compliment.
The birthday girl went on to express that receiving numerous compliments from people was the most significant praise for her, indicating that they all shared a connection with her role.
In 2018, the film titled “Padmaavat” featuring Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, Shahid Kapoor, and Jim Sarbh was unveiled. This grand historical drama was orchestrated by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, inspired by the 16th-century poem “Padmavat,” penned by Malik Muhammad Jayasi.
The story recounts the bravery of Rani Padmavati, queen of Mewar, as she engages in battle against Alauddin Khilji, who is relentless in his pursuit to seize her due to his infatuation. This unyielding fascination with Padmavati sets off a gruesome conflict between Mewar and Delhi.
Even though they were outmatched, Ratan Singh and his devoted followers displayed great bravery in battle. As the fight continued, Padmavati and her companions began to prepare for Jauhar – a ritual suicide – to safeguard their dignity. In the movie, Aditi portrays Mehrunisa, the spouse of Alauddin Khilji’s brother, Malik Kafur.
Aditi’s most recent Bollywood project was a collaboration with Bhansali as well; remarkably, it was for his directorial series titled “Heeramandi,” which premiered on Netflix earlier in the year.
