Rekha would annoy Kiran Kumar pretending to be his ex-girlfriend: When yesteryear Bollywood stars revealed pet-peeves against partners

Amitabh Bachchan often humorously reveals the sort of behaviour that gets him in trouble at home with his wife, Jaya Bachchan. In a recent episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati, he said that Jaya doesn’t spare him if he fails to answer her phone calls. In a 1975 issue of Stardust magazine, several other popular film personalities revealed how they annoy their partners, and how their partners annoy them.
“14 famous filmland couples revealed the pet peeve that they hold against their partners’ in the magazine article, unearthed fans and posted on Reddit recently. Babita said that she gets ‘mad’ at Randhir Kapoor when he ‘falls asleep’ while she’s talking, while Randhir retorted, “She keeps bugging me to lose weight.”

Actor Rekha, who was apparently dating Kiran Kumar at the time, said that she is annoyed his ‘dutiful son’ personality, and his insence at returning home 10 pm to have ‘a glass of milk’. “Haven’t I had enough mama’s boys,” she asked. Kiran responded saying that he gets annoyed when Rekha mimics his ex-girlfriend’s voice on phone calls. “And then, when I’m sweet to her, she gets mad,” he said.

Parveen Babi said that she is driven ‘up the wall’ when Danny Denzongpa goes silent during arguments, and Danny said that instead of wishing him ‘good morning’, she yells at him to take his harmonium ‘and get out’.
Tiger Pataudi and Sharmila Tagore had even more specific pet peeves about each other. Tiger said that he gets annoyed her habit of ‘chewing bones at the dinner table’, and she said that she isn’t the biggest fan of his morning kisses, which he gives her ‘without shaving’.
Fans were entertained these tidbits of information about yesteryear stars. “Growing up with a dad who played the harmonium early morning I can assure you that would pretty much be the sentiment of anyone being woken up that way. I can’t tell u how much I hated the damn thing,” one person wrote in the comments section of the Reddit post, in reaction to what Danny Denzongpa had said. “No wonder Sharmila and Pataudi were the only couple that genuinely lasted out of mutual love and respect,” another person commented.
