Hema Malini REVEALS That Dharmendra Didn’t Watch ‘Baghban’ Because Of Her Chemistry With Amitabh Bachchan (Read More)

One of the most cinematic love stories is that of Dharmendra and Hema Malini. They were married in 1980 after falling in love while working together. Dharmendra has four kids and was previously married. That did not prevent him from marrying Hema Malini, though.

The two celebrities supposedly became Muslims before getting hitched. Esha and Ahana Deol, the daughters of Hema Malini and Dharmendra, were a blessing. Then Hema Malini took a break from acting in films before making a comeback with Baghban. In this one, she appeared in film alongside Amitabh Bachchan.

Hema Malini responded to these rumours in an interview. She giggled and responded, "I don't know about that," when asked if Dharmendra really did not watch Baghban because of her chemistry with Big B. She also admitted in the interview that she had some reservations about casting Baghban because she would be playing a mother to adults. Her mother pushed she play the part even though she wasn't sure if she wanted to or not. "I remember my mother was sitting when I was hearing the story from Ravi Chopra," she recalled.

In the tale of Baghban, an elderly couple is forced to part ways when their children believe they can no longer care for them jointly. Mother must thus live with one child while the father must do the same with the other. They come together in some way. In the movie, Salman Khan plays the part of Alok, who aids Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini's characters in regaining their self-respect. It is a moving movie with a powerful message to convey.
