A look at Dharmendra’s film journey-

Dharmendra’s story starts from 1935…

Dharmendra was born on 8 December 1935 to Kewal Kishan Deol, headmaster of village Sahnewal in Punjab, British India. Who was given the name Dharam Kewal Kishan. Dharmendra’s childhood was spent in Sahnewal in a Punjabi Jat family. Dharmendra studied at the Government Senior Secondary School where his father was the headmaster. When Dharmendra was in tenth class, he saw Dilip Kumar’s film ‘Shaheed’. He liked the film so much that he decided to become a hero himself.

Dharmendra was only 19 years old when his father got him married to Prakash Kaur in 1954. At the same time, one day I read an advertisement in the newspaper for a talent hunt competition by Filmfare Magazine. The winner was going to get work in films. He was newly married, so it was difficult for him to leave his wife and go to Mumbai, but he convinced his family.

The film Dil Bhi Tera Hum Bhi Tera, released in 1960, was a huge hit and Dharmendra got recognition across the country from the very first film. As soon as Dharmendra gained popularity, he started getting many hit films like Surat Aur Seerat (1962), Anpadh (1962), Bandini (1963), Aayi Milan Ki Bela (1964), Baharen Phir Aayengi (1966), Dil Ne Phir Yaad Kiya (1966), Dulhan Ek Raat Ki (1967). Thanks to these films, he got the status of romantic hero in the 60s.

The hero named Dharmendra had made a name for himself in the film industry, but he was yet to get the status of star. Meena Kumari did this work. They were seen together in the 1964 film ‘Main Bhi Ladki Hoon’. Meena Kumari started liking Dharmendra from the very first film. At that time there was a rift in the relationship between Meena and her husband Kamal Amrohi. Meena Kumari used to put a condition before her producers that she would become the heroine of the film only when Dharmendra would be the hero of the film.

To cast a big actress like Meena Kumari, filmmakers used to accept every condition of her. Dharmendra and Meena Kumari were seen together in the films Purnima, Kajal, Manjali Didi, Baharon Ki Manzil and Phool Aur Patthar and Dharmendra got star status.

93 hits and 49 superhits in 300 films, but 0 awards

In his acting career of 66 years, Dharmendra has acted in more than 300 films including comedy, action and romantic. These include 93 hit and 49 superhit films. The surprising thing is that he never received an award for acting.
