Known for his irresistible screen presence, gentle humour and unmistakable warmth, Dharmendra was a star whose influence travelled far beyond the borders of Bollywood. His colleagues and admirers from Tamil and Malayalam cinema, including Kamal Haasan, Rajinikanth, Mammootty and Mohanlal, joined the rest of the country in remembering a man whose artistry and humanity shaped Indian film culture for more than six decades.Kamal Haasan’s heartfelt farewell to a dear friendVeteran actor Kamal Haasan took to social media to remember his friend and colleague Dharmendra, who passed away in Mumbai at the age of 89, only weeks before his 90th birthday.Posting on his X handle, Kamal wrote, “Deeply saddened by the passing of my dear friend and legendary actor Dharmendra ji.

Kamal and Dharmendra shared screen space in the 1984 Hindi film Raaj Tilak, directed by Rajkumar Kohli. The epic ensemble also featured Sunil Dutt and Hema Malini, and remains a reminder of a time when talents from different film industries came together for grand, larger than life entertainers. Their bond, however, extended far beyond a single film, built on mutual respect and affection.Rajinikanth, Mammootty and Mohanlal remember a gentle giantTributes also poured in from other South Indian icons whose paths crossed with the Hindi superstar over the decades.Superstar Rajinikanth, who acted with Dharmendra in films like Insaaf Kaun Kharega in 1984 and Farishtay in 1991, shared an emotional message on X. He wrote, “Farewell, my friend. I will always remember your golden heart and the moments we shared. Rest in peace, Dharam ji. My deepest condolences to his family.”Dharmendra had spoken with equal warmth about Rajinikanth. While promoting his film Yamla Pagla Deewana in Chennai, he recalled first meeting Rajinikanth and his wife Latha in Ooty. He described Rajinikanth as a younger brother and said that his love for the superstar and his family had only grown since that first meeting. In 2021, Dharmendra even shared a scene from Insaaf Kaun Kharega on X and captioned it, “Rajini a darling friend a great actor,” a line that now reads like a fond farewell in retrospect.
Farewell, my friend. I will always remember your golden heart and the moments we shared. Rest in peace, Dharam ji. My deepest condolences to his family.

Malayalam megastar Mammootty also paid tribute to Dharmendra and underlined how deep the veteran’s impact ran across generations. His message read, “A true icon has left us. Dharam ji’s legacy will continue to inspire every generation. Heartfelt condolences and prayers.”Mohanlal, another towering figure in Malayalam cinema, called Dharmendra’s passing the end of a cinematic chapter. He wrote, “The passing of Dharmendra ji marks the end of a cinematic era. A legend whose warmth and artistry will live on forever. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. Om Shanti.”These messages from Tamil and Malayalam superstars speak to Dharmendra’s rare ability to transcend regional boundaries. For artists who primarily built their careers in South Indian languages to feel such a personal sense of loss for a Hindi cinema icon shows how genuinely he connected with his peers. He was a colleague, an elder and a friend who made everyone around him feel seen and valued.A family man and an enduring legacyDharmendra is survived by his first wife Prakash Kaur and his second wife, actor and politician Hema Malini. His sons Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol, daughters Esha and Ahaana Deol, along with Ajeita and Vijeita from his first marriage, carry forward both his personal and professional legacy.For audiences, he remains the original He Man of Hindi cinema, the romantic hero with soulful eyes and the action star with an easy grin. For his colleagues in Tamil and Malayalam cinema, he leaves behind memories of a kind, grounded man who treated superstars and newcomers alike with warmth and generosity.As Indian cinema collectively mourns his passing, the tributes from Kamal Haasan, Rajinikanth, Mammootty and Mohanlal remind us that true stardom is not confined to a single language or industry. It lives in the lives an artist touches, both on screen and off it.Also Read: Moushumi Chatterjee: Dharmendra had a childlike soul, his smile was divine - Exclusive。 (ECNS) -- Chinese authorities have launched a nationwide investigation into reports that formaldehyde was being used to prolong the shelf life of cabbages intended for human consumption. The State Council Food Safety Office, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, and the State Administration for Market Regulation said Sunday that they had ordered local authorities to investigate the matter and take swift, strict action after it drew public attention, according to an official statement released that day. The departments ordered a thorough trace of the affected cabbage shipments and strict measures to prevent contaminated products from entering the market. In addition, they instructed provincial-level authorities to immediately conduct special and random inspections and market checks of cabbages and other perishable vegetables, warning that any violations would be punished severely. The case came to light Saturday when a blogger posted a video showing individuals in Kangbao County, Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, dipping cabbages in a formaldehyde solution before loading them onto trucks for transportation. Police have taken legal measures against the individuals involved, and further investigation is continuing. (By Zhang Dongfang)
