‘Dharmendra did not want me to contest elections’, Hema Malini revealed after 10 years
Bollywood actress Hema Malini is not only a great actress but also a good politician. These days he is in the headlines for his political career. She is contesting the Lok Sabha elections on behalf of the Bharatiya Janata Party. She is contesting elections from Mathura for the third time.
Hema Malini explained
Hema Malini has been playing a very important role in politics since 2014. However, now after contributing to politics for 10 years, Hema Malini has revealed that her husband Dharmendra did not want her to enter politics. Vinod Khanna guided him and inspired him to enter politics.
Hema Malini talked a lot about her film and political career. Meanwhile, he has made many revelations which his fans are quite surprised to know. In an interview, Hema Malini was asked whether ‘Dharamji’ (Dharmendra) did not like that I entered politics. Then the actress had said that she was asked not to contest the elections because it is a very difficult task. Then I took it as a challenge.
Dharmendra considered politics a risky business
Hema Malini further said that why did Dharmendra give her such advice? When Dharmendra came into politics, he had to face many problems. Because he had to travel a lot and along with this he also had to work in films. In such a situation, he found all this work risky. He was very insecure about my safety. He was also a little worried because this was his experience.
Hema Malini further said, ‘When you enter politics as a film star, people’s craze for you increases. Everyone knows how much craze there is among the fans about Dharamji, so it was very difficult to manage it. I also have to face many problems which Dharamji does not like at all but I am a woman so I manage everything well.
Let us remind you that Dharmendra was MP from Bikaner from 2004 to 2009. However, he did not like politics so much so he abandoned the trip there. Hema Malini is still earning her name in politics.
This is how Hema Malini’s political journey began
Hema Malini said that when she was about to start her political journey, late actor Vinod Khanna had supported her. Not only this, he also inspired Hema to enter politics. He also remembered the influence of Vinod Khanna in the conversation.
Remembering Vinod Khanna, Hema Malini said, I was inspired by Vinod Khanna because he used to take me with him for his election campaigns. He taught me a lot, how to give speeches, how to face the public. Giving a speech to 5000-6000 people is no joke. At first you will be scared. Let us tell you that BJP member Vinod Khanna has been MP from Gurdaspur twice and has also been the Union Minister of State for Tourism and Culture as well as Minister of State for External Affairs.
