The actress continued, “For the past 15 days, I haven’t been okay. I haven’t been able to work or process myself emotionally.”
Dharmendra, the legendary actor of Hindi cinema, passed away at the age of 89. Tributes and condolences are pouring in since late afternoon. Celebrities have arrived at his funeral. He shall never be forgotten.
Actress Urvashi Rautela, who debuted with
Sunny Deol in the 2013 S_ingh Saab The Great_, wrote a long note to pay homage to the legendary actor. She wrote- “Sometimes life gives you moments so precious that you don’t realise they will one day become memories that hurt and heal at the same time.
My debut big film as a Lead … my first step into cinema… and destiny placed me in the presence of legends. Sunny Deol sir, Bobby Deol sir… and the man whose name my family spoke with reverence —
#Dharmendra ji.”
She added, “I was barely 18 and a half then… naïve, nervous, knowing nothing about the world I had stepped into. And yet there I was, sitting beside him between shots. Two chairs. A quiet corner. Me, trembling with inexperience… and him, speaking with a gentleness that could calm storms.”
The actress continued, “For the past 15 days, I haven’t been okay. I haven’t been able to work or process myself emotionally. And I know… honestly… nobody really cares about someone else’s silent pain. But my heart needed to speak. Because some grief refuses to stay inside.
My parents always told me thr first memory of a film shoot in Nainital — and how the entire world seemed to glow because Dharmendra ji was there. Growing up, I kept hearing: “There will never be another hero as magnetic, as handsome, or as pure as him.”
She ended the note saying, “Thank you… for your kindness, your teachings, your warmth.
I will carry your blessings with me for the rest of my life.”
The veteran actor got married at the age of 19 in the year 1954 to Prakash Kaur. They have four children together- Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol, and daughters Vijeta and Ajeeta.
While talking about
Dharmendra in an interview, Kaur said, “He is the first love and the last man in my life… however far he may be from me, if I need him, I know he’ll be there. I have not lost my trust in him.”
