'THIS IS OUR FAMILY'S PERSONAL MATTER'

Hema Malini on family holding two separate prayer meets for the late Dharmendra

- 

Veteran actor-politician Hema Malini says the decision of Dharmendra's family to keep two separate prayers meets after his death was a private matter and people need not worry about them.

After Dharmendra's death in November, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol and daughters Ajeeta and Vijeta held a prayer meeting a hotel while Hema and her daughters Esha and Ahana organised one at their home.

Hema also held a prayer meet in Delhi and Mathura. In an interview with a prominent newspaper, the actress explained the family's decision. “Yeh humare ghar ka personal mamla hai (this is our family's personal matter). We talked to each other. I kept one prayer meet at my home because my group of people are different.
