Veteran Bollywood actor Dharmendra, known for his iconic films like Sholay and Jugnu, has been in the industry for over four decades. When asked about the secret to his enduring career, Dharmendra attributes it to his passion for acting, stating that it's not just a profession, but his beloved. He reminisces about the good old days when a film running in theaters for weeks was a major achievement, unlike today's focus on blockbuster earnings. Dharmendra expresses his disdain for the current emphasis on box office records, saying it's not something that excites him. The 82-year-old actor, however, remains driven by his desire to stay connected to humanity and leave a lasting impact. When asked what keeps him going, Dharmendra reveals that he still feels like a newcomer, yearning to live in the hearts of people. He hopes that when he passes away, people will feel a sense of loss, acknowledging that he was a part of their lives. Recently seen in the Yamla Pagla Deewana franchise alongside his sons Bobby and Sunny, Dharmendra continues to prove that age is just a number for him.
