The actress apparently told Rekha to maintain distance from the actor. However, for Raveena, it was Rekha who was at fault and not Akshay as she was quoted as saying:
“I don't want to say too much on the subject. I don't think Akshay ever had anything to do with Rekha. As a matter of fact, he would run away from her. Akshay tolerated Rekha because of the film. At one point she wanted to get lunch dabbas for him from home. That's when I put my foot down. I felt it was taking things a bit too far. She's a wonderful person, but she should learn where to draw the line.”
