Celebrating Dharmendra: Upcoming 90th Birthday and a Glimpse into 'Sher'

A Family United for a Milestone Celebration

As the Bollywood legend Dharmendra continues his recovery at home, the Deol family unites to plan an unforgettable celebration for his 90th birthday. This momentous occasion presents a perfect opportunity to cherish both his illustrious career and his inspiring journey to recovery.

Unveiling the Story Behind ‘Sher’

In a recent reminiscence, director Anil Sharma shared anecdotes about the shelved film ‘Sher’, initially meant to feature Dharmendra in a James Bond-esque spy role. The movie, which was set to be shot abroad, promised a blend of action and comedy with a script full of potential. Anil fondly remembers how “Dharam ji” performed with style in the action sequences and charmed audiences with his comedic flair.

A Star-Studded Journey

The cast of ‘Sher’ boasted notable names of its time, with dialogues penned by the legendary Kadar Khan. The film had its mahurat at Hotel Sea Rock before the release of ‘Hukumat’. However, due to producer issues, the production was halted, leaving behind a promising yet incomplete dream.

Reflecting on Artistic Aspirations

Anil Sharma, who was a newcomer when ‘Sher’ was conceptualized, expresses a heartfelt sentiment – “kash ye film ban pati” (if only this film could have been made) – emphasizing how the script was packed with entertainment. Alas, he concedes with wisdom, “hoye vahi jo ram rach rakha,” implying whatever destiny may hold.

Moving Forward with Gratitude and Hope

The Deol family’s plans for Dharmendra’s 90th birthday are rooted in gratitude and a hopeful outlook. As the legendary actor recuperates, such family moments become even more precious, celebrating life, legacy, and love.

According to Times of India, fans and well-wishers worldwide are expected to join the celebration through social media, ensuring that this birthday is adorned with unwavering affection and joy.
