She is the dream girl of Bollywood! She married the hunky superman of Bollywood!
I cant call her yester-years star, cause even in her present form she gives younger heroines a run for their money!

Date of birth (location):16 October 1948, Trichy, Tamil Nadu, India.
Mother of Esha Deol and Ahana Deol. Step-mother of Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol. Daughter of Jaya Chakravarthy.
The second South Indian actress after Vyjayanthimala to become a major Hindi film star. Ironically, Hema's career almost ended before it began. Her first director threw her out of a Tamil film he was directing, saying she had no star appeal. Hema resolved she would make it big where it mattered the most: Bollywood.
Hema Malini began her film career opposite Raj Kapoor in Sapnon Ka Saudagar (1968) where she became labeled the "Dream Girl". She had a glorious reign as a leading actress during the 70's, even winning the Filmfare Best Actress award for Seeta Aur Geeta (1972), but in the early 80's, she decided to concentrate on 'character' roles, often those with feminist undertones.
Both actors Jeetendra and Sanjeev Kumar proposed marriage to Hema, but it was Dharmendra, with whom she formed a hugely successful on-screen couple, that won her hand in the end. She defied the conventional norm at the time by becoming his second wife and continuing to work after having children.
In an effort to re-establish herself as a classical dancer (she is an expert Bharatnatyam dancer), she directed TV serials such as "Noopur" (1990) and "Women of India" in 1996.
Hema Malini was awarded the 'Padma Bhushan' in 1999 for her contribution to Indian Cinema.
Born in the village Ammankudi, located in the District of Trichy, Tamil Nadu, to V.S. Ramanujam Chakravarti and Jaya Chakravarti.
Set up a Natya Vihar Kalakendra, an institution dedicated to create, spread and present the age old Indian mythological themes from the epics like Ramayana, Mahabharata and other ancient scriptures through the medium of dance.
In 2003 was nominated to the Rajya Sabha (Parliament of India), serving on the Committee of External Affairs as an MP. In 2004, actress-turned-politician Hema formally joined the BJP (Bhartiya Janata Party).
Served as Chairperson of the National Film Development Corporation (NFDC) from 2000-03.

Hema Malini is an excellent actress. I didn't discover her until recently, but she's amazing. She's originally from the south. She married Dharmendra (somehow without him divorcing his first wife!) and Bobby and Sunny Deol are from Dharmendra's first marriage and Esha Deol is his marriage to Hema. My favorite film of hers is Baghban. She is more talented and beautiful now than she was when she was young. She was the famous Basanti from Sholay. Check out her old films too. I loved Seeta aur Geeta where she played twins. Oh! and don't forget that she's a very accomplished classical dancer.

The heart throb of yester years cinema. Lallu Prasad yadav promised his people to provide road as smooth as the cheeks of Hemamalini, which drew a sharp reaction from Dhemendra, whose illegal wife she is. Now, presently she is an MP of BJP.
