\"'Dharmendra Hema Malini<\/a> and Rajesh Khanna<\/a> worked together in many memorable films like \u2018Andaz\u2019, \u2018Mehbooba\u2019, \u2018Prem Nagar\u2019 and \u2018Babu\u2019, becoming one of Bollywood\u2019s most successful on-screen pairs. But more than him, Hema formed a lasting bond with his wife, the beautiful and talented Dimple Kapadia<\/a>. The two actresses, despite their age gap, shared a deep friendship built on honesty, empathy and emotional understanding. Their connection, however, wasn\u2019t without its moments of tension, one of them being when Dimple once told Hema, \u201cDharmendra will never marry you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hema Malini and Dimple Kapadia\u2019s unlikely bond<\/p>\n

At that time, Hema Malini was already an established star, while Dimple Kapadia was just a teenager trying to adjust to her new life after marrying Rajesh Khanna at the age of 16. Hema, who was nine years older, felt a \u201cwarm feeling\u201d towards Dimple and fondly called her a \u201ckid sister.\u201dIn her biography \u2018Hema Malini: Beyond the Dream Girl\u2019 by Ram Kamal Mukherjee, the ‘Sholay’ actress recalled her first impression of the ‘Bobby’ actress. \u201cThis kid was all wrapped up in a big sari, with a jooda and bangles covering her arms. Then she had a baby soon after,\u201d Hema shared as quoted by NDTV.The actress described how Dimple seemed lonely and out of place in the film world despite being married to a superstar.\u201cDuring the outdoor locations, she would sit there smoking and drinking, but I never felt it looked wrong or indecent. I know she was going through a lot of tension, and she was such a lonely girl. Rajesh used to shoot all day, and in the evenings, he would sit with his friends and chat late into the night and drink. She had no company,\u201d Hema recalled.<\/p>\n

While Dimple was trying to find her space in her marriage, Hema Malini was facing her own emotional struggles. The actress had fallen in love with Dharmendra, a married man and father of four , Sunny, Bobby, Ajeita and Vijeta.In the biography, the ‘Dil Chahta Hai’ actress admitted she used to get very emotional about Hema\u2019s situation. Her concern often came out in the form of blunt advice. \u201cYou see, I was such a hot-headed person in those days that I\u2019d get all worked up about her problems. I\u2019d tell her things like, \u2018This man (Dharmendra) is never going to marry you. You better sit up and do something about it.\u2019 And if she had listened to me\u2026\u201d Dimple confessed.<\/p>\n

Despite Dimple\u2019s firm words, fate had other plans.
