When Hema Malini Was Expecting Their Daughter Esha, Dharmendra Booked An Entire Hospital With 100 Rooms For Her Delivery

During An Appearance On Hema Malini's Episode Of "Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai" In 2002, Her Friend Neetu Kohli Recounted The Incident

Dharmendra and Hema Malini’s love story remains a milestone in Bollywood, and tales of their love life continue to be the talk of the town. A fascinating and secret incident was revealed by one of Hema’s friends, recalling how the actor gave birth to their daughter Esha in secrecy.

During an appearance on Hema Malini’s episode of “Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai” in 2002, her friend Neetu Kohli recounted the incident, saying, “When Esha was going to be born, nobody knew that Hema was pregnant. So Dharam ji (Dharmendra) had booked the whole hospital for Esha. It was Dr. Dastoor’s nursing home with about 100 rooms. He booked all the 100 rooms for Esha to be born… Nobody knew that this is what Dharam ji had done.” Esha and Hema looked happy and laughed as Neetu made the revelation.

Their love story began in 1970 when they first met while working on their film “Tum Haseen Main Jawaan.” Over the years, the two fell in love, even though Dharmendra was a married man at the time with four kids, including actors Sunny and Bobby Deol. Despite Hema’s parents reportedly being against her marrying Dharmendra, the two finally tied the knot in 1980. They welcomed their daughters, Esha and Ahana Deol, in 1981 and 1985, respectively.

Before marrying Hema, Dharmendra was married to Prakash Kaur, and they tied the knot in 1954.

Their love story continues to captivate Bollywood fans, and their journey together has been filled with ups and downs, making them an iconic couple in the film industry.
