1. She is by far the female actress of Indian cinema, in whose proportion the career of all other actresses resembles dress rehearsal. Hema Malini started her career in Tamil cinema. She danced in the Tamil film Idhu Sariyam and was all set to make her debut in Tamil.
But it was rejected by Tamil makers for being "too thin". She then moved to Mumbai from Chennai and was immediately signed up by producer Ananthaswamy for Sapon's merchant. Hema and her mother had an ugly fall-out with Ananthaswamy to tie the debutant in a drone contract. "I didn't know what I was doing, what I was signing, and what it meant." Our mother and I were taken advantage of because of our financial neglect.
2. Hema's first co-star was Raj Kapoor. Years later when she was the biggest female superstar of Indian cinema, Raj Kapoor offered her the Satyam Shivam Sundaram. When Hema heard that she had to go through most of the film blouse — she ran away. "It was a lovely screenplay with beautiful lyrics. But I couldn't do the scenes required by Raj Saab, ”says Hema without regret. He never had to feel sorry for what he had to let go.
3. Hema and her Amma (Mom) were extremely conservative and insincere when it came to the revealing actresses wearing clothes. Whenever Hema had to wear anything, the set was debated. During the shooting of Raja Jani, when Hema had to wear a dress that ended at the ankles, Amma was so upset that Hema threw the dress in the water. The crew was on a boat at the spot. Laughing, Hema said, "It's true. My mother never allowed me to wear revealing clothes. I was very particular about what I was wearing compared to that. "
4. Hema's favorite actress and her childhood idol are named Vyjayantimala. He started his entire career from dancing to acting of his senior. In Vijay Anand's Tere Mere Sapne Jahan Hema got a guest appearance, playing an actress named Malatimala, who was inspired by Vyjayantimala.
5. Hema met Dharmendra when he first collaborated with Tum Haseen Main Jawan. Sparks did not immediately fly. He said, "I was too embarrassed to say anything to my heroes and how are you." But I knew that Dharamji was the most beautiful man I had ever seen. He is still there, ”says Hema.
6. There was no dearth of suicides for Hema in her hair. It seems that every major person at that time was married or unmarried, wanting to marry him. But the two heroes who persuaded him to do so were Jeetendra and Sanjeev Kumar. Jeetendra flew to Chennai with the Shagun of Thanedar. They turned him down. For Sanjeev Kumar, Hema was the only woman he ever wanted to marry. She is devastated when he destroys her. He never recovered. Hema says, "I don't know if everybody wanted to marry me. I only wanted to marry one man."
7. She was considered the only female actor with a solid boxoffice draw. The career of eminent leading men appreciated. Both Manoj Kumar and Rajesh Khanna were going through a career meltdown when they asked Hemato to appear on the screen in Saints and Premanagar respectively. Both actors made a comeback with these films. “I never saw who my co-star was except to work with Dharamji. Then it was different. Otherwise I was indifferent. "
