When she first tried her hand in Tamil cinema, Hema Malini had to hear various unpleasant comments like she did not possess star appeal, so and so. But, such type of comments could not break her strong desire to enter filmdom. She then forwarded her foot towards Bollywood and got the first break in Sapnon Ka Saudagar, opposite Raj Kapoor. From then, there was no looking back. Johney Mera Naam, Seeta Aur Geeta, Trisul, Satte Pe Satta and the list goes on where Hema proved her credentials.

Dharmendra's Hema
There were many who had a special feelings for Hema and wanted her to be their life partner. She got proposal from top stars like Jeetendra and Sanjeev Kumar. But Hema, preferred to ignore them all. Because at that time, she had someone else on her mind. That lucky man was handsome Dharmendra, who was then the most popular actor. The fact that Dharmendra was already married man and was the father of two sons, Sunny and Bobby Deol, did not shook her decision to marry him. They tied the knot in 1980.

Dutiful mother Hema

She is a strict mother and at the same time a good friend and a perfect guide. She got her daughters trained in Oddisi dance and they performed at many shows together. She never enforced her decision on them. When Esha expressed her desire to act, she readily accepted. Aahana also took up film direction. Initially, Hema used to accompany Esha to the sets but after sometimes, when Esha learned all the ticks of acting and understood the scenario of filmdom, she let her move alone. She played the role of protective mother very well.
