Bobby Deol marked what would have been Dharmendra’s 90th birthday with a deeply personal note, remembering the legendary actor less as a screen icon and more as a father whose presence shaped the lives of everyone around him. Dharmendra passed away on November 24, 2025, at the age of 89 in Mumbai, just days before the milestone.
On Dharmendra’s 90th birth anniversary, Bobby Deol recalls his father as his first hero: “He-Man ho aap sab ke”
Sharing a photo of the two of them, Bobby wrote a long heartfelt message in Hindi, addressing his father as both “Mere Pyaare Papa” and “Hamare Pyaare Dharam.” He thanked Dharmendra for the unwavering love he gave his family and for standing by them through every joy and every hardship. Bobby reminisced about the countless moments where Dharmendra offered strength and guidance, adding that only “our Dharam” could support people the way he did.
He also highlighted his father’s rise to stardom, crediting him for taking everyone along with him while never letting go of anyone’s hand. From Punjab’s Sahnewal to the national stage, Bobby wrote, Dharmendra carried every identity with pride. Calling him “He-Man” for the world but “hero” since childhood for him, Bobby reflected on the values he and his siblings inherited from their father—dreaming big, trusting oneself, and living with compassion.
“Dil ho to aapke jaisa… Insaan bano to aapke jaisa,” he wrote, ending the note with: “Proud to be yours. Happy Birthday, my precious Papa. Love you forever and always.”
Sunny Deol reacted to the post with red heart emojis, while fans joined in remembering the veteran star. Earlier in the day, Esha Deol also shared an emotional message for her father. A day prior, during the Bigg Boss 19 finale, Salman Khan paid tribute to Dharmendra, recalling his warmth and long-standing bond with the industry.
