Portraits by Gautma da: Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan

Portraits by Gautam da: Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan 

Only Gautam Rajadhyaksha could get this shot for Dinesh Raheja. 

What a moment. 

So much history here. 

MOVIE magazine got the icons together. And they spoke at length. Even aired out grievances, dished out compliments, appreciation. What an interview... 

Zeenat Aman by Gautam Rajadhyaksha

 

Madhuri Dixit and her bad blonde wig

 

Shot by Gautam Rajadhyaksha - an eternal fav - these images of Madhuri DIxit in a cheap blonde wig does not do justice to her iconic beauty. 

The makeup is flawless, the photography is fine with Gautam da's signature soft-light focus and high glamour - but that wig is a travesty. 

Oh the 90s... Bollywood got away with a lot of BS that we now smirk over... 

Sunil Shetty and Aishwarya Rai in the 90s

Athiya Shetty mentioned that she went to her dad's film sets and just sat and stared at Aishwarya Rai all day. Sonakshi Sinha in an interview with Karan Johar said, had she been on the sets of Taal - she'd end up just looking at her all day. 

People forget, 90s Aishwarya was the definitive 8th wonder of the world! I mean, Just. Look. At. Her.

Aishwarya Rai for Mohabbatein (2000)

Aishwarya Rai's Mohabbatein (2000) stills shot by the late, great Gautam Rajadhyaksha. The brown-lens doesn't take away from her epic, epic beauty.
