Dharmendra: 'My family has never been given its due, we are not into marketing ourselves'

Veteran actor Dharmendra recently spoke in an interview with Times Now about how he feels his family never got its due. He said, “Our family is not into marketing itself. We’ve always believed in letting our work speak for us. Sunny is in two of the biggest blockbusters of all time. You will never hear him talking about his achievements. My younger son Bobby (Deol) is also doing well for himself. But my family has never been given our due. We don’t mind. The love of our fans is enough fuel to keep us going. We don’t need the industry to acknowledge us.” He added, “I didn’t get a single award even for Satyakam.” On Gadar 2 A big part of the Gadar 2 audience was not even born when the first Gadar was released. And yet, they are cheering, whistling, and clapping in the theatres. People are going crazy for the film.
