Veteran actor Dharmendra died on November 24, 2025, at the age of 89. In his remembrance, the Deol family has arranged a prayer service today, November 27, at Seaside Lawns, Taj Lands End in Mumbai. As a tribute to his remarkable career and enduring legacy, Sonu Nigam is expected to perform some of his iconic songs during the event. Members of the film fraternity and close relatives have started gathering at the venue to offer their final respects.

The death of iconic actor Dharmendra on November 24 has left the Indian film fraternity and countless fans worldwide in profound grief. The 89-year-old veteran, affectionately known as Bollywood’s ‘He-Man,’ was hospitalized at Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital earlier this month following reports of respiratory issues.
Although he was released from care on November 12 and seemed to be recuperating at home, his condition deteriorated unexpectedly in the subsequent days. Dharmendra, approaching his 90th birthday on December 8, passed away surrounded by his family.
Dharmendra is survived by his wife Hema Malini, his first wife Prakash Kaur, and his six children — Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Esha Deol, Ahana Deol, Ajeeta, and Vijeta. In his career, the veteran actor’s most recent appearance was in the film 'Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya' alongside Shahid Kapoor. His upcoming and final project, 'Ikkis', depicts the life of Indian war hero Arun Khetarpal, with Dharmendra portraying the martyr and Agastya Nanda playing the lead role.
