“Dharmendra Is Definitely The  most Handsome Man  I Ever Met,” says  Dream  Girl Hema Malini On Her  Birthday

I caught India’s Dream Girl Hema  Malini in  a very  forthright mood on the  eve  of   her  birthday on October 16 when she told me she  had received the  best  gift of her  life.

“Someone has put all my films on an I Pad . For  the first time I am able to access all my films  from the time I  entered the film industry to  the present day. Would you believe it, I had never seen  any of films in a complete form before,” says  the  forever-beautiful actress who has bedazzled  audiences  for over  fifty years.

Hemaji  admits  watching herself in her blockbusters  from the past  was  a revelation.  “My reaction on seeing myself  on screen  was, ‘My God, who is this  beautiful  girl?’Yes I am admitting I  was  very beautiful.”

For  the  first  time , Hemaji  has admitted  to being a beauty. “I never took the compliments seriously before. People always said I  was  beautiful. It is only  after seeing my films that  I realize what  they meant.”

Hemaji juggles many roles at the same  time.  She is  a  wife, mother, grandmother, actress politician,

She  admits  it   isn’t easy  juggling all these roles.  “It requires a lot of serious time management . Bahot adjustment karna  padta hai.Suddenly if I am called to my constituency I  am not always  able to rush there, I have to remind  my constituency of my  other duties.”

I remind her that Dharmendra and  Hema Malini made the most beautiful on screen couple.

She  laughs, “Dharmendra is definitely the most handsome man  I’ve ever met. That’s why I married him.I guess we do make  a beautiful couple. I enjoyed  doing  films with him, especially Sharafat, Raj Jani, Dillagi ,Razia Sultan and  Sholay.”

Her birthday wish? “Dharamji and I  should remain healthy. The love that  we receive from fans  is like oxygen  for  our souls. Please  keep showering your  affections on us.”
