|November 25, 2025
Legendary Bollywood actor Dharmendra passed away in Mumbai. Just days before his 90th birthday, the beloved star, famously known as the "He-Man of Bollywood", left behind a legacy that shaped Indian cinema for more than 60 years.
The actor had recently returned home after being treated at Breach Candy Hospital, and fans were hopeful about his recovery. But on 24 November, an ambulance was seen leaving his residence, and soon after, several celebrities were spotted arriving at the Pawan Hans crematorium in Juhu. The exact cause of death has not been revealed, though Dharmendra had been unwell since early November.
Tributes have been pouring in from across the nation. President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed deep grief, saying Dharmendra's death marks the end of an era.
