Dharmendra is quite active on social media and often responds to fans and others who tag him in their posts with queries. He recently responded to a Twitter user who shared pictures of old adverts featuring him and Hema Malini. The netizen shared pictures of Hema ad Dharmendra on the straps of some brands of beedi adverts.
Sharing the old advert pictures, the Twitter user wrote, “Jab bidi ka ad superstar karte the (When superstars used to feature in beedi ads). Insert any hilarious caption.” Dharmendra who noticed the tweet replied to it with, “Tab …. bin pooche… koi bhi …. kuchh bhi …chhaap deta tha … bhala ho… in mauqa prassaton ka (At that time anyone would print anything they wanted without asking. Good for the opportunists).”
The user thanked Dharmendra for the clarification and said, “Thanks for the clarification Dharam Ji. Sorry hume toh pata nehin tha, hum ye old photo internet re dekhe aur soche such much mein stars ad karte honge. Aap se reply mila, hum dhanya ho geye. Mera ek request hai, ek sher naya wala, thoda likhiye (Sorry I didn’t know, I saw the picture on the internet and thought stars used to feature in ads. Grateful for your reply. I have a request, kindly write a new poem).”
On the work front, Dharmendra will next be seen in the film Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani directed by Karan Johar. The film also stars Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Shabana Azmi, and Jaya Bachchan.
