Waheeda Rehman

I was very nervous, but not to face the camera. I was conscious of my voice, thinking I had a very bad one. The recordists would tell me that while working, whether good or bad, you have to speak a little loudly. That was a great problem. - Unknown

I was a newcomer when I started working with him (Guru Dutt). It was a nice experience. He was a good director, especially for newcomers. He would understand their shortcomings and problems and rectify it himself. - Unknown
