Hema Malini lovingly addressed him as “Dharam ji ❤️”, before expressing the depth of what he meant to her: a loving husband, a devoted father to their daughters Esha and Ahaana, her friend, guide, philosopher, poet — and truly, “everything” to her.

She recalled how Dharmendra seamlessly embraced her family with warmth and affection, endearing himself to every member with his gentle nature and genuine interest in others. Beyond personal life, she highlighted his unmatched stature as a public personality — a legend whose humility, universal appeal, and towering talent made him a unique icon in Indian cinema.

Hema Malini has publicly condemned the circulation of false news surrounding her husband, legendary actor Dharmendra’s health. In a statement shared on social media, she clarified that the veteran star is in hospital for observation, under continuous medical monitoring, and responding well to treatment. While expressing gratitude for the concern shown by fans and well-wishers, Hema Malini described the spread of misinformation as “unforgivable” and “deeply irresponsible.”

Her remarks come after several online channels and portals reported incorrect claims that Dharmendra’s condition had worsened, with some even alleging he was on life support. These reports were swiftly dismissed by the family and close sources, who confirmed that the actor remains stable. Hema Malini expressed her disappointment that certain “responsible channels” had failed to verify information before publishing, calling such behavior disrespectful not only to her family but to journalistic ethics.

She emphasized the emotional toll of such rumors, explaining that during times of medical concern, families need compassion and space — not speculation. “Please give due respect to the family and its need for privacy,” she wrote. Her appeal underscores the broader issue of media accountability in an era of viral misinformation.

As Dharmendra continues to receive medical attention and remains surrounded by family, the focus remains on his recovery. Fans across India have continued to send prayers and messages of support. Hema Malini’s statement serves as both a heartfelt plea and a reminder of the damage false reporting can cause — to trust, to dignity, and to the individuals involved.
