Till that time, I am sure he was alright. I felt he would be around for one or two more years, definitely. During the treatment, everything started becoming… I mean, we can’t blame anybody. I don’t know, he was fine. He was not alright, that’s why he went to the hospital. He was admitted to the hospital many times, and would always come back healthy and smiling. That’s what we were hoping this time also.”Hema Malini also stated how Dharmendra had the best. She said, “I will always say. He had the best of life. Whatever he desired, he had it.

Speaking about her relationship with Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol, Hema said, “It has always been very nice and cordial. Even today it is very nice. I don’t know why people think something is wrong with us. It is because people want gossip. Why should I answer them? Is it necessary for me to give an explanation? Why should I? It’s my life. My personal life, our personal life. We are absolutely happy and very close to each other.That’s it. I don’t have anything more to say about this. I don’t know what stories people are making up. So sad that people use other’s grief to write a few articles.That is why I don’t answer (such speculation). Sunny is planning museum for Dharamji. So he will do it. We will consult and do it. He will tell me whatever he does, he tells me.”When asked if she is healing properly? Hema said, “We were together for 57 years. I can’t imagine a life without him; I miss him every minute. It’s not that we were together all the time. He would always ask, ‘Where are you? When are you coming? Are you coming back? Then, I am also coming back from Lonavala.’ He would come and be here with me and the family. I feel sad without him. When will I meet him again?”.The late Dharmendra was last seen in ‘Ikkis’ with Agastya Nanda, Jaideep Ahawat and the late Asrani. Go to Source
