Late Legend Dharmendra's Unwavering Dedication on Set

Dharmendra's final film, 'Ikkis', released on January 1, is drawing praise, with the team sharing fond memories. Choreographer Vijay Ganguly recounted a touching moment where Dharmendra, finding it difficult to stand, insisted on performing dance steps during a late-night shoot. The veteran actor's commitment to giving his 100 percent inspired everyone on set.

During the filming of a qawwali sequence, Dharmendra volunteered to do the steps, even asking for lyrics to memorize for lip-syncing. His dedication was evident as he rose to perform, refusing to let his physical challenges diminish his performance quality. This left the crew in awe of his spirit.

Dharmendra passed away on November 24 last year. His final film, directed by Sriram Raghavan, is based on the life of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal. The movie has garnered positive reviews from critics and audiences alike.
