Dharmendra’s first marriage with Prakash Kaur
At the mere age of 19, Dharmendra and Prakash Kaur got married. At that time, he was yet to make his debut in Bollywood and was thus an aspiring actor, waiting for his big break. However, due to pressures, he decided to get married via an arranged marriage alliance to Prakash. While the latter took care of the family and children (they had four children, Sunny, Vijeita, Ajeeta, and Bobby), Dharmendra had to relocate to Mumbai to pursue his dreams whereby he became a superstar on the silver screen in the 1960s.
Soon enough, Dharmendra fell in love – this time with superstar and talented dancer Hema Malini and mentioned his intention of wanting to marry her. Shortly after, they did get married but this news came as a shock to Dharmendra’s first wife, Prakash Kaur.
Dharmendra’s second marriage with Hema Malini
Despite this controversy which was quite a difficult pill to swallow for not only Prakash Kaur but also for Dharmendra’s fans in general, the latter did marry Hema Malini and they were in marital bliss when they had two daughters, Esha and Ahana.
However, the second marriage of Dharmendra caused Prakash to distance herself from him, but they decided not to divorce each other.
Even though the Bollywood couple have remained married for 43 years, it still comes as a surprise that Hema Malini lives separately whilst Dharmendra lives with Prakash Kaur in Juhu, Mumbai.
In a twist of events, Hema Malini once mentioned in an interview rather candidly that she quite enjoys living separately although it was not what one would expect in a married life. She also mentioned that despite the fact that she and Dharmendra don’t live together, the latter has always been supportive of her and their two daughters Esha and Ahana, and that she is grateful for the same.
Conclusion
With the above details covered, it is safe to say that Ajeita Deol is happy in her life working as a psychologist and a mother to two daughters. She is also in constant touch with her brothers and does not regret being away from the Bollywood limelight.
