Hema Malini and Dharmendra are the ideal example of ‘love wins, no matter what’. When Hema and Dharmendra got married, it raised many eyebrows but they sailed through. Both Hema Malini and Dharmendra have overcome hurdles in their personal relationships and accepted a lot of changes and made adjustments, but when it comes to their daughters, Hema never made them do any adjustments. In one of the old interviews of Hema Malini, which is going viral right now, the veteran actress spoke about how Dharmendra wasn't very happy with Esha Deol making her Bollywood career and didn't want her to become a heroine. But Hema Malini fought for her daughter and today Esha is a known name and face to reckon with. She is also all set to make a comeback after her sabbatical due to marriage and pregnancy.
