Film legend Dharmendra died on Monday, November 24, at the age of 89. Hema Malini’s post is her first since the death of the film icon.

“And always has been through good times and bad. He endeared himself to all my family members with his easy, friendly ways, always showing affection and interest in all of them. As a public personality, his talent, his humility in spite of his popularity, and his universal appeal set him apart as a unique icon unequalled among all the legends.
