Legends Don’t Die, They Leave An Immortal Legacy
I was as shocked as the entire world who loved the rustic original He-Man of the Hindi Film Industry – Dharmendra Singh Deol.
The curtains have fallen on the magnificent career of Dharmendra, one of Indian cinema’s most endearing and charismatic figures, who passed away on Monday, November 24, 2025, at the age of 89. His passing leaves a colossal void, marking the end of an era defined by his unparalleled charm, raw talent, and a filmography that became the very backbone of Bollywood.
Dharmendra was a paradox on screen—a formidable action hero with the innocence and tenderness of a poet. This rare combination allowed him to effortlessly inhabit the most diverse roles, captivating generations of audiences.
His body of work is a testament to his versatility:
As A Romantic Hero: Films like Anupama and Aaye Din Bahar Ke showcased his sensitive side, establishing him as a heartthrob.
As The Action King: Earning him the moniker ‘He-Man,’ his powerful performances in action thrillers like Mera Gaon Mera Desh and Dharam Veer cemented his status as a bankable superstar.
As The Comic Genius: His impeccable timing and chemistry with co-stars in comedies like Chupke Chupke and his iconic turn as ‘Veeru’ in the classic blockbuster ‘Sholay’ are cherished forever. His role as the lovable rogue ‘Veeru’ in Sholay (1975) stands as one of the most recognizable and adored characters in cinematic history, a film that redefined the scale of Indian blockbusters.
His most productive phase was from the 1970 to 1979 when he gave hits after massive hits. The superstardom of Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan did not faze his march as a solid player in the Hindi Film Industry.
Beyond his on-screen persona, Dharmendra was known for his genuine warmth, simplicity, and the immense love he held for his craft and his audience.
We at Atul Song A Day blog mourn the loss of a great star, but the charisma of ‘Dharam Paaji’ will continue to shine brightly through the over 300 films he gifted to us.
Om Shanti – Sadgati
Rest in peace, legend.
In his memory I present to you a song from one of his romantic action movies, Pocketmaar (1974).
The song “Banda Parwar Main Kahan” by Mohd Rafi Saab was written by Anand Bakshi and composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal.
“Pocketmaar”(1974) was produced by Jaginder Luthra and Ramesh and directed by Ramesh Lakhanpal. The movie had Dharmendra, Saira Bano, Prem Chopra, Mehmood, Nazir Hasain, Asit Sen, Shobha etc in it.
The movie had five songs in it.
Two songs have already been posted on the blog. Here’s the third song.
The song is lip synced by the ever charismatic debonair handsome Dharmendra addressing this song to the lovely lady Saira Banu.

banda parwar main kahaan

This film had him in his late 1960s look
Dharmendra- Saira Banu was also a successful pairing often overlooked, as the number of times they were paired was much less compared to his pairing with Asha Parekh in that period. But he was a romantic hero 1st with such a handsome face. No wonder actresses fell for his charming smile. His look could make one “weak at the knees” – as the books that had romantic stories back then would say.
A heartfelt tribute to a large hearted simple human being
