Veteran actress Hema Malini has broken her silence and shared an emotional message on social media, days after the death of her husband and Bollywood legend Dharmendra
What She Wrote
In her first post since his passing on November 24, Hema Malini wrote: “Dharam ji … He was many things to me. Loving husband, adoring father of our two girls, friend, philosopher, guide, poet, my ‘go-to’ person in all times of need — in fact, he was everything to me.”
She recalled how he was loved by the entire family for his friendly and humble nature, adding that in the film world his talent and humility made him a unique icon whose legacy will remain forever.
Hema described the loss as “indescribable,” saying the void created by his absence will stay with her forever. She also shared old photos of the couple together, calling them “memorable moments.”

Their Life Together
Hema and Dharmendra were married for over four decades. Over the years, they worked together in many films and built a family. His death has left a deep void not only in the world of Indian cinema, but also in the hearts of people close to him and especially in Hema Malini’s life.
For fans and followers, Hema’s tribute is a moving reminder of Dharmendra’s stature as a talented actor, a beloved family man, and a gentle, humble human being. The post gives a rare glimpse into the personal grief of one of Bollywood’s most iconic couples.
