MUMBAI: Veteran actress Hema Malini had once opened up about her husband, actor Dharmendra’s emotional side. She revealed that behind his strong and charming persona lies a sensitive heart.
During her old appearance on the talk show ‘Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai, ’ Hema shared that Dharmendra often gets teary-eyed watching old videos and moments featuring her and their daughter, Esha Deol.
Hema Malini appeared on the show along with her daughter Esha Deol. During the conversation, host Farooq Shaikh asked Esha whether her father, Dharmendra, watches her films. Esha replied that he had seen some of her promos and lovingly remarked that she still looked like a child—adding that he thought she looked like a doll. When asked if Dharmendra watches all her movies, Esha admitted she hadn’t asked him yet. At this point, Hema interjected with a smile, saying, “You know the problem is, he won’t watch them. He gets very emotional. Whenever I show him our dance videos, he starts tearing up. He’s a very emotional person — I don’t think he can sit through the whole film.”
