The film ‘Sholay’, made under the direction of Ramesh Sippy, has been re-released in theaters on Friday with a 4K version. In this film, as much as the pairing of Jai and Veeru was liked, the romance of Dharmendra and Basanti was also liked. The pairing of Dharmendra and Hema Malini won everyone’s hearts in the film Sholay, but do you know that hero Dharmendra had fallen in love with someone even before his youth? On the occasion of the re-release of Sholay, we will tell you about Dharmendra’s poem and story, which he had written before the partition of India-Pakistan.

Dharmendra told the story of his first love
It is common to fall in love or feel attracted to someone at a young age. This moment comes in everyone’s life. Some people talk about this, some don’t, but Dharmendra Deol had narrated the story of his first and raw love and had also written a poem to express the condition of his heart. Dharmendra came to Salman Khan’s show ‘Dus Ka Dum’ with his son Bobby Deol.

In the show, Bobby teased his father and said, “Send the poem to the girl for whom you had written it.” On the matter of love (romance), Dharmendra told that in earlier times people were a little shy. The person in front did not even know that someone was secretly sighing coldly for them. Then Bobby talked about that poem and the girl.

Dharmendra had written the poem
Dharmendra told that he had named this poem ‘Anokhi Kashish, Anjaana Ahsaas’. He said that this was the time when the country was not divided and he was also very young. Humming his poem, the actor said, “I was young, innocent at my age, I don’t know what it was like, someone to go near, to sit with whomever I wanted. She was Taliba of eighth grade, and I was studying in sixth, she was the daughter of our school teacher, her name was Hamida. She would smile, I would go near her. If she was silent, I would bow my head. She would ask something else and I would say something else. What is this question, this unique one.” What is attraction and unknown feeling?

Let us tell you that when Dharmendra was 14-15 years old, he started liking his own school teacher’s daughter. The actor kept this romance alive on screen and played romantic roles in superhit films like ‘Tum Haseen Main Jawaan’ in 1970, ‘Mera Gaon, Mera Desh’ in 1971, ‘Sita-Geeta’ in 1972, and ‘Pratigya’ in 1975.
