20 Jul
Summary
- Hema Malini learned her name was 'Dream Girl' before film release.
- Her producer revealed the name during a Mumbai tour for 'Sapno Ka Saudagar'.
- The title became synonymous with her even before the film 'Dream Girl' was made.

Veteran actress Hema Malini revealed the untold story behind her enduring 'Dream Girl' title during a recent appearance on Indian Idol. While performing the song 'Kisi Shayar Ki Ghazal' from her film 'Dream Girl', Malini shared memories of its creation.
She clarified that her association with the 'Dream Girl' name began before the film of the same name was produced. When her debut film, 'Sapno Ka Saudagar', was nearing its release, her producer took her on a tour of Mumbai for publicity. During this tour, a banner proclaimed 'Dream Girl Coming', which initially upset Malini as her name wasn't featured.
Her producer then assured her that 'Dream Girl' would forever be her title. This early association with the name eventually led to the film being titled 'Dream Girl'. Malini expressed her gratitude for the team who worked on the iconic song, noting she never anticipated its lasting popularity.
