I actually had no idea that Bobby, Sonny, Esha were Dharam's kids. Also, I think it's funny when you get to know an actor for when he was in his prime, and then realize that guy you saw in such and such newer movie is the same guy. That just happened to me with Dharmendra!Shelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08758282383525747870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36123519.post-92154615192447347872010-03-26T08:10:10.433+01:002010-03-26T08:10:10.433+01:00Thanks I do hope to enjoy these movies.

The first 2 Dharam movies are famous for their songs.<br /><br />I have also managed to buy The Train, Teesri Manzil, Chupa Rustom, Jewel Theif, Seema and some Guru Dutt movies !<br /><br />I do hope you are able to make it to India soon - not in april or may - tooooo hot!Filmbuffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36123519.post-63974319502129756732010-03-25T16:35:17.711+01:002010-03-25T16:35:17.711+01:00Filmbuff, thanks for stopping by!

I am so jealous of the fact that you're in India - I was there in '07 and hope to make it there again this year or next.<br /><br />I am loving your choice of DVDs - 'Blackmail', 'Bandini' and 'Anupama' are wonderful, and I hope you love them as much as I did... MHMD, which of course you've already seen, has great songs and beautiful people but... not too much else. I haven't seen the other two you mentioned, although I want to soon.

Jaya indeed is a natural actress and it is a pity that she stopped acting in films after marriage<br /><br />I am right now in India and managed to buy quite a few Dharam movies like Aaya Sawan Jhoom Ke, Aahye Din Bahar Ke, Mere Hum Dum Mere Dost, Anupama, Bandini, Blackmail etc. I haven't seen any of these except Mere Hum Dum Mera Dost. So am looking forward to seeing these after returning home!Filmbuffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36123519.post-26631982683223207162010-03-24T18:27:47.907+01:002010-03-24T18:27:47.907+01:00Hi Yves!

And I love Sophy's response... <br /><br />I love everything about Dharmendra really, except the haircut he wore for a while in the late 70s and early 80s. To pick a favourite feature is pretty tough, but I will go with his mouth... as Sophy says, great smile, nice teeth. Love his eyes too. And his hands... and his legs.. and... oh well, you get the picture....Daddy's Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14679564351145843434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36123519.post-17166993228949884722010-03-11T23:11:49.627+01:002010-03-11T23:11:49.627+01:00"there's something very consistent about ..."there's something very consistent about them - both in the things he says and the way he says them, and always underneath it all... a poignant, human touch of vulnerability."<br /><br />You've thought about all these things! Yes, perhaps that is probably why Dharmendra creeped into my imagination and took over it. It's that honesty and vulnerability. He's a good man.<br /><br />As for my favorite Dharam feature, why it's his smile. Nice teeth too. Oh and his beautiful brown back is tres sexy.<br />What's yours, DG?sophynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36123519.post-45571541070895589102010-03-11T17:53:54.183+01:002010-03-11T17:53:54.183+01:00Wow, you reply to comments so quickly!!

Totally agree with you regarding Dharmen...Hi Sophy! Totally agree with you regarding Dharmendra's emphasis on physical fitness and how, unlike most others of his time, he worked out for his roles. He was body-conscious long before it became fashionable. He maintained a great physique for a long time, and he wasn't shy about showing it onscreen (but always tastefully!) either. Definitely, as you say, he did things differently.Daddy's Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14679564351145843434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36123519.post-39726583105836054092010-03-08T20:25:44.407+01:002010-03-08T20:25:44.407+01:00Thank you so much for this interview. The Filmfare...Thank you so much for this interview. The Filmfare lady compared him to James Dean. She could see that then, back when he was an unknown rustic.<br />I think Dharmendra in his own way was a pioneer. He did things differently. Even his athleticism, and fitness. There hasn't been much of a culture of that in India (perhaps there was some in the parts of Punjab where they recruit hockey players and military men from) and yet, Dharmendra worked out for his roles. Those taut hamstrings and quadriceps on display in Dharam Veer are the result of much effort. I could go on of course. I love the guy.sophynoreply@blogger.com
