The mystery of Silsila actress' vermilion is out! At least that is what the ex Bigg Boss 8 contestant's wife claims

Rekha wears sindoor for Amitabh Bachchan, says Deepali Issar. Yes, that's what the front page of the GR8 magazine this month screams. And spilling the beans is none other than Big B's Coolie co-star and ex Bigg Boss 8 contestant Puneet Issar's wife.

For the longest time now we've seen Rekha as the elusive and enigmatic star. And the mystery around her intensifies every time you add Big B to the picture. There have been stories and hush hush rumours about the Silsila actors, but nobody ever dared to talk it out in the open. While many have asked why the eternal beauty sports a vermilion, we have accepted it as a part of Rekha's style statement and personality. But, Deepali Issar in a recent interview was quoted saying, "Rekhawears sindoor for Big B."

That is enough to get a mini storm amongst the media folks and fans. We wonder if this revelation from Mrs Issar is post the actress' Bigg Boss promotional stint where she snubbed Puneetcompletely. Everybody got talking when Rekha ignored Punnet inside the Bigg Boss house. Stories of Rekha holding Issar responsible for Big B's injury on Coolie sets made headlines.

With this statement has Mrs Issar now also called upon Bachchan family's wrath? Well, we can't wait to read the full interview. What about you BollywoodLifers?

"A section of people has constantly criticized us for indulging in unabashed populism by promising mindless freebies. But even they will be silenced now, because this time, we've taken our freebie promise to a whole new level. Our government will be handing out free Candy Crush lives to Facebook users in Delhi. We mango aadmies are hitting 2 mangoes with one stone here - the Candy Crush playing community will obviously love us for doing this, but even FB users who don't play the game will stop being badgered constantly for lives, by those from the former sect. So the whole Facebook population of Delhi will love us," an upbeat Kejriwal told The UnReal Times.

However, just like his previous measures, AAP's latest offering too, has met with mixed reactions. While TOI consulting editor Sagarika Ghose "Incredible! Facebook feels like one big happy family this morning. Strangers poking each other, Candy Crushers giving high fives. Hope it lasts :)," on her Facebook page, online right wingers have lashed out at Kejriwal for playing online appeasement politics. "This clearly shows the anti-Hindu mindset of AAP. Will he dare to give similar free lives for those who play Temple Run? Obviously not! Because he'll lose his secular vote bank!" a NitiCentral spokesperson told The UnReal Times.

The anti-corruption crusader has also asked Delhi Facebook users to accept any Candy Crush cheat codes sent to them by BJP workers, take screenshots of the same and report them to Zuckerberg, with the Delhi CM in cc. The CM's ambitions have, however, hit a temporary obstacle, after not receiving any appointment yet, from Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg, to discuss the scheme. "No reply yet from Zuckerberg. Why is FB sooo scared?" tweeted the Delhi CM, before proceeding to complain to the Supreme Court, with a photograph of Zuckerberg with PM Modi.
