At 83, Veteran Dharmendra Dares To Dream And Do, Writes Suman Sharma
Six decades and his charisma is unfading. Six decades and his fans remain unflinching. Six decades and his sex-appeal is intact. “Meri nekdili meri sehat ka raaz hai. My soul is pure. My face is like a mirror. I think positive. I enjoy exercise. I take good care of my health.” That’s how the 83-year-old Dharmendra explains his appeal.
The veteran was last seen in Navaniat Singh’s Yamla Pagla Deewana: Phir Se with sons Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol. Earlier, the three had featured in Samir Karnik’s Yamla Pagla Deewana (2011), an emotional story of a boxer. The film, he says, left his fans moisteyed. “This time round I wanted to make them laugh,” he explains why he did the comedy Yamla Pagla Deewana: Phir Se. He concedes it’s a different high working with his sons but refuses to draw comparisons between them. “Both my sons are equal to me. I’m proud of them both. They’re good human beings,” he maintains.
