Doctors treating the actor have indicated that his condition is stable and progressing positively. “He is responding well to treatment and needs rest,” a member of the medical team said, requesting anonymity. His family has been monitoring him closely, ensuring minimal strain ahead of the celebrations.
The Deol family is planning an intimate but grand gathering to mark his 90th year, a significant moment for fans and the film fraternity alike. Relatives have begun coordinating arrangements, though details are being kept private. Supporters across the country have also taken to social media to express relief over his recovery and anticipation for his return to public appearances.
Known as Bollywood’s “He-Man”, Dharmendra continues to remain active in cinema. He will next be seen in Ikkis, starring Agastya Nanda, scheduled for release on December 25. The film’s launch adds to the festive mood around his birthday, marking what many close to him call a “double celebration”.
Industry colleagues, including Hema Malini, Salman Khan and Amitabh Bachchan, have conveyed their wishes for his health. “He is strong and will be back soon,” a family friend said.
Despite the recent health scare, those close to Dharmendra say his spirits remain high. As preparations move forward, the upcoming birthday is expected to be a moment of warmth and reflection for an actor who has spent more than six decades in Indian cinema.
