Veteran actor Dharmendra entered the film world in the 60s. Dharmendra started his career as a romantic hero, but later he made his mark as an action hero. Dharmendra's heavy hands and voice have roared at the box office many times. Apart from films, Dharmendra's name was also in discussion about his personal life.
After many years of marriage with Hema Malini, Dharmendra had mentioned his first love in a show. Dharmendra once appeared in Salman Khan's popular reality show Dus Ka Dum with his two sons Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol. During that time he had told about his teenage love.
When Salman Khan asked Dharmendra, 'Dharam ji, who is the lady in your life whom your heart skipped a beat for the first time?' On this, Dharmendra had replied, 'I don't know what she was, someone with whom I wanted to go near, to sit with, again and again. She was in 8th class and I was studying in 6th class. Our school teacher had a daughter, her name was Hamida. She would just smile and I would go closer. She remained silent and I used to bow my head. She would ask something else and I would say something else. I used to remain silent again, she used to say, don't be sad Dharam, there is still time, everything will be fine in your exams.

Dharmendra had further said in this, 'She would say this and go away, I would keep looking, she would disappear, I would keep thinking what is the question, friend. Then partition happened, Pakistan was formed, Hamida left. I understood the meaning of my question. Even now, when her memory gives me a sweet prick, I laugh and say to myself…Dharam, that was the first innocent step of your love and you will never forget that innocent step throughout your life. Dharmendra became emotional while speaking and Salman also had tears in his eyes and then he said, very good.
At the age of 19, Dharmendra got married to Prakash Kaur from whom he had four children Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Ajita and Vijeta Deol. In 1980, Dharmendra had a love marriage with Hema Malini from whom he had two daughters, Isha and Ahana Deol. Dharmendra has entered his 89th year of age today.
