Actor Dharmendra's personal life is often under the spotlight due to his controversial life decisions and two marriages. His first married Prakash Kaur, when she was just 19, resulted in four children: two sons, Sunny and Bobby, and two daughters, Vijeta and Ajeeta. Later, he fell in love with Hema Malini and they married, adding two daughters, Esha and Ahana, to the family.
After starting a new life with Hema Malini, Dharmendra continued to maintain a strong bond with his first wife and their children. This enduring bond is particularly evident in his warm and loving relationship with his sons, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol, who are often seen with the veteran actor.
Dharmendra turned a year older on December 8, 2024, and he celebrated his special day with his sons, Sunny and Bobby Deol. For the day, Dharmendra donned a brown-hued shirt paired with a black jacket. His sons, on the other hand, twinned in white t-shirts. The trio held hands and enthusiastically celebrated the actor turning a year ‘younger'.
As soon as pap pages shared Dharmendra's birthday celebration video on their account, it garnered much attention and love from netizens. Everyone poured in their best wishes for the veteran actor. However, a huge section of the audience wondered why Dharmendra does not give equal importance to his daughters as he gives to his sons. It is also important to know that there are barely any traces of his daughters, Vijeta and Ajeeta, on the web.
Sharing their two cents about the differentiation, a netizen wrote, "Wow, TIL he has four daughters. I only knew about Ahana and Esha." While another fan commented, "Ladke to apne hote hai." Some fans even expressed their shock to know that he has four daughters, as they were not even aware of their existence. Expressing their doubt, a fan penned, "He has four daughters? Who are the other two?" Another fan claimed, "he's not on good terms with his daughters...got them married off at such a young age but let his boys play around then he too did the same. The girls didn't have a say. It would have been the same for Esha and Ahana, but Hema stood her ground."
