and love story is quite interesting. The duo often express how much they love each other. Even their fans love how their on-screen romance transpired into reality. But did you know, Jaya Chakraborty, Hema’s mother wanted her daughter to get married to someone else? Yes, you read it right. Jaya wanted another actor as her son-in-law because she felt he was a perfect man for her daughter.
If you are wondering is the other actor Jeetendra, Sanjeev Kumar, or , well, you are wrong. Despite there being so many handsome hunks during the 70s, Jaya Chakraborty found one of them particularly striking and perfect for her daughter . Jaya, who wanted to become a dancer but couldn’t fulfil her dream, did everything to make sure her daughter became one of the top actresses and eventually India’s Dream Girl.
So who is actor Jaya felt was apt for the Sholay actress? Well, it’s none other than . As reported by Mayapuri’s 250th issue, Hema’s mother was in awe of Girish, an actor, director, Kannada writer, and playwright. Chakraborty admired Karnad’s behaviour and was a fan of his acting as well. Further in this entertainment news, Jaya even produced a film called Ratnigiri so that her daughter and Girish get well-acquainted with each other. However, at that time, there was already the news of Dharmendra and Hema Malini’s affair making a buzz everywhere. Hence, Girish didn’t want to create any issue between the two.
Coming to the movie, it was released in 1979 and failed to impress the masses. In the year 1980, Hema married Dharmendra, and they have two daughters together, Esha Deol and Ahana Deol.
