Actor Sidharth Malhotra attended the ceremony alone, paying his tribute to the veteran star. Ahead of the gathering, Hema Malini shared a deeply emotional note and unseen photographs of Dharmendra on X. In her heartfelt message, she wrote:

“Dharam ji❤️ He was many things to me. Loving Husband, adoring Father of our two girls, Esha & Ahaana, Friend, Philosopher, Guide, Poet, my ‘go to’ person in all times of need — in fact, he was everything to me!”

Calling her personal loss “indescribable,” Hema added that the “vacuum created is something that will last through the rest of my life,” reflecting on their years of togetherness and the memories she will cherish forever.
