Hema Malini has completed 60 years in Bollywood, an extraordinary achievement. And her answer in her film about Deepika Padukone playing her in a biopic was one of the most eye-popping.
When reporters asked Deepika Padukone for her role on the big screen, Hema Malini had an easy response and humility.
"If she wants, she can do. Anyone can do," Hema Malini said, indicating that she would be happy if Deepika or any other talented actress chose to tell her life story.
The statement has attracted the attention of fans who feel that Deepika Padukone’s elegant and screen presence, as well as her ability to be a great actor/actress, would make her a good choice for the biopic, portraying Hema Malini’s dream girl. Social media users are already talking about how Deepika could portray some of Hema Malini’s most iconic roles and timeless looks.
Hema Malini expressed immense pride to be part of the Indian film industry in the six-decade journey which she had been on.
"I am extremely happy and proud to be part of this beautiful film industry," she said, thanking everyone who supported her throughout her remarkable career.
And the veteran actress also remembered her early years in Bollywood fondly.
"How young and beautiful I was," she said with a smile as she recalled the golden age of Hindi cinema during which she became one of the country’s biggest stars.
Hema Malini said her success was thanks to God, and thanks to her mother.
"I am grateful to God and my mother for giving me so much love," she said, and thanked those who helped her along the way.
Hema Malini has appeared in over 200 movies in the last six decades and has a proud legacy in Indian cinema. Her performances in blockbusters like Sholay, Seeta Aur Geeta, Dream Girl, Johnny Mera Naam, Satte Pe Satta, and Baghban are all that she has to offer to the next generation of actors.
"I have almost 200 films and so many memorable songs to my credit," she proudly boasted.
Hema Malini is a classical Bharatanatyam dancer, filmmaker, producer, author, and politician, and far from acting, she is also a film director. Her contribution to Indian cinema and culture has won her many awards (and people's loving attention) across the world.
Although no public announcement has been made on Hema Malini's life, her comments renewed interest in the idea. Deepika Padukone's name is likely to be at the heart of such a project in the future because Hema Malini is supportive and so is the love of fans for both actresses.
As Hema Malini celebrates 60 glorious years in Indian cinema, her legacy is still alive and well, and Deepika Padukone’s portrayal of her is a very interesting subject to Bollywood fans.
