 "Dharmendra Prayer Meet: Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai & others attend; sons Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol get emotional")
There are stars who belong to their time, and then there are those rare figures who gently bend time around themselves, shaping how an entire nation imagines strength, yearning, and the ineffable magic of the cinema. Dharmendra’s life and career are not just the story of a beloved actor—they form a chronicle of how India negotiated masculinity, grace, and heroism across six tumultuous decades, and how one man consistently stayed ahead of a culture that often did not know what to do with him.
To honour the legacy of the most handsome actor of Hindi cinema, the Deol family organized a prayer meet that was attended by Salman Khan , Aishwarya Rai & many other members of the fraternity. Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol got emotional greeting the guests who came to pay their last respects.
Dharmendra had an experience of over six decades in front of the camera. The moment the name appears or arrives or is even heard, we think of a solid man, the son of the soil, a man with fists of iron and heart of gold. And someone with a tough exterior.
But given the actor and his relentless spirit to contribute to Hindi cinema, he was the most vulnerable of the artists who blew the celluloid with his spectacularly vociferous and versatile performances. Dharmendra was more than just An Action Hero.
The rise and rise of Dharmendra
The actor made his debut with the film Dil Bhi Tera Hum Bhi Tere. And for that, he was paid Rs 51 only. As years passed by, the He-Man of Hindi cinema went on to become one of the most blazing and bankable stars in the country and gradually ended up creating an empire worth Rs 450 crore as per reports.
