Long-Term Partnership

The Rekha & Om Puri partnership

After 13 years apart, they came back together for Aastha: In the Prison of Spring (1997). They didn't share a set between 1984 and 1997. The work is uneven: Tarang (7.7) at one end, Maati Maangey Khoon (2.9) at the other.

From Kalyug (1981) to Aastha: In the Prison of Spring (1997). Vijeta (1982, 7.5/10) is the underseen one in the catalogue.

The shape of the work

The 1980s account for 80% of everything they made together. The 1980s belonged to Tarang; the 1990s to Aastha: In the Prison of Spring. Rekha acted in every film; Om Puri acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.

5 films across 2 decades

The 1980s brought 4 films together, anchored by Tarang (7.7/10).

The 1990s accounted for 1 film, averaging 5.5/10.
