- 14:52:31: The #QOTD-09 was Name (prob the only) film which had both Amitabh & Rekha doing double roles (not the same character in disguise, 2 chars)..
- 14:54:10: A tricky Q as Amitabh & Rekha have never been together in double roles on creen in a film.but then dont expect straight questions at Kweezzz
- 14:55:19: The only film where both Amitabh & Rekha catered to double roles in the same film is Sooryavansham! Amitabh played a double role onscreen!
- 14:56:13: while Rekha played double role off screen as she gave voice over to both the leading ladies, heroines of Amitabh (Jaya Mathur & Soundarya)
- 14:58:05: JayaMathur (wifeof father Amitabh) & Soundarya (wife of son bigb) got voices by Rekha.Atleast Amitabh & Rekha shared space in Air in double
- 14:59:39: Got two correct answers by @implex and @y4t1n.... congrats!
- 15:00:33: @maxdavinci not on screen but off screen.. but you could feel her presence thru her voice in all the film... you wanted an obvious one?
