Ananya Panday, Farah Khan visit the Deol house post Dharmendra's demise

Farah Khan and Ananya Panday visit Dharmendra's family home to offer condolences. Ananya reveals her father Chunky Panday's first film was with the late superstar.

"My father's first film and first-ever shot on camera was with Dharam Ji - Ananya Panday"

Mumbai, Nov 25

Director-choreographer Farah Khan, on the afternoon of November 25, was seen visiting late superstar Dharmendra’s house, after the actor’s demise on November 24.

The filmmaker visited the Deol family to offer condolences. Actress Ananya Panday too was seen arriving at late Dharmendra’s house to meet the grieving Deol family, post the superstar’s demise.

Ananya was seen dressed in an all-white salwar kameez as she headed towards the Deol house. On November 24, post the superstar’s demise, both Farah and Ananya had taken to their respective social media accounts to mourn the passing away of the superstar.

Sharing a throwback picture featuring herself with the He-man of Bollywood, Farah wrote, “May God bless your soul, Dharamji. You have given us so much happiness down the years with your performances and your personality! Condolences to the Deol family.” Ananya Panday also paid tribute to the veteran actor and shared throwback pictures of the late actor with her father, Chunky Panday.

She had also revealed that her father Chunky’s first-ever movie shot in the industry was with Dharmendra. Sharing a major throwback picture of Chunky and Dharmendra together, Ananya Panday wrote, “My father’s first film and first-ever shot on camera was with Dharam Ji… forever special, forever in our hearts." She also shared throwback photos of Dharmendra from her parents’ Chunky and Bhavana Pandey’s wedding reception.

In another social media post, Ananaya shared a picture of the late superstar and wrote, "The Greatest. Om Shanti."

For the uninitiated, Dharmendra, who was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital in South Mumbai in mid-November, was discharged after he showed recovery. The actor was reportedly put on a ventilator, as he was suffering from breathing difficulties.

As the news of his demise spread, many Bollywood personalities took to their respective social media accounts to remember the great actor and mourn the loss. Dharmendra, who was born in 1935 in Punjab, began his career in the early 1960s, after he was discovered through a talent hunt competition.

Some of his most iconic films include ‘Phool Aur Patthar’, Sholay, Blackmail, Chupke Chupke and others. Dharmendra was a recipient of Padma Bhushan, the third-highest civilian award of India.

Respect to Farah Khan and Ananya for visiting the family personally. In our culture, showing up physically means so much more than just social media posts. Good to see the younger generation understanding these values.

The connection between Chunky Panday and Dharmendra is so touching! My father grew up watching his films and always talked about how Dharmendra was the ultimate action hero. End of an era indeed.

While I appreciate the condolences, I wish media would give the family some privacy during this difficult time. Constant camera coverage at such moments feels intrusive, even if well-intentioned.

Padma Bhushan recipient and true legend! From Phool Aur Patthar to his recent work, he never lost his charm. The industry has lost one of its pillars. Condolences to the Deol family.

Ananya wearing white salwar kameez shows she understands our traditions. In times of mourning, these small gestures matter. Dharamji's legacy will live on through his incredible filmography and the lives he touched.
