Hema Malini: The Nation Is Fed Up Of The Covid

The  ever-beautiful MP  Hema Malini had to skip the last parliamentary session. “I  wanted to go . But my daughters (Esha  and Ahana) would hear  none of  it. They wouldn’t listen to any of my arguments. After a certain age, the children  become  like your parents,”  laughs Hemaji who turned  72 in  October .

 The  Dream  Girl who never minces words says  she is fed up of  being confined to her home in Mumbai.  “Now enough  is enough. How long can the nation hold its breath for the Coronavirus to  go away? For someone  like me who was  constantly travelling in normal times, being tied down to one place is  unbearable.”

She specially misses  visiting  her constituency. “I miss the  people of Mathura,and I know they  miss me.The first thing I’ll do is  visit my constituency  once I am  able to travel.”

Hemaji grumbles that she hasn’t  met her  husband the affable   Dharmendra ever since the Lockdown. “He is happily isolated at his  farmhouse, doing gardening,listening to  old Hindi songs and writing Urdu poetry.”

How many poems has  Dharamji written for  Hemaji?

This once elicits  a hearty laugh from the  enchantress. “Not one. Wohkehte hai na,ghar ki murgi daal baraabar.”
