Hema Malini breaks the silence on living separately from Dharmendra. Hema Malini has made headlines recently for her interview with Lehren TV. During the interview, the veteran actress discussed her career, family dynamics, and other topics.
Hema Malini spoke about what it’s like living away from husband and veteran actor Dharmendra and she said that she “doesn’t feel sad about it.” When the interviewer told Hema Malini that people call her a “symbol of feminism” for living in her own house after marriage, the actress said, “Symbol of feminism?” She added, “Nobody wants to be like that, it happens. Automatically, naturally, what happens, you have to accept. Otherwise, nobody will feel like they want to live their life like this. No! Every woman wants to have a husband, children, like a normal family. But somewhere, it went out of the way.”
As Hema Malini breaks the silence on living separately from Dharmendra, she added that Dharmendra has always been there and said, “I am not feeling bad about it or sulking or feeling sad about it. I am happy with myself. I have my two children, and I have brought them up very well. Of course, he (Dharmendra) is there, always. Everywhere. Naturally he has to do it. He was the one worried, ‘Shaadi hona chaiye bachchon ka jaldi‘ (The kids should get married early). I said Hoga (It’ll happen). When the time is right, the right person will come around. With the blessings of God and guru ma, everything happened.”
In 1980, Dharmendra married Hema Malini, a top film star at the time. With Hema Malini, he has two daughters, Esha and Ahana. Dharmendra married Prakash Kaur in 1954, when he was 19 years old, before entering the film industry. Sunny, Bobby Vijeeta, and Ajeeta are their four children together. Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, and Esha Deol are all actors. Hema Malini and her daughters were not present at Sunny Deol’s son Karan’s wedding last month.
