Who Will Inherit Dharmendra’s ₹400 Crore Legacy? Hema Malini Breaks Silence: “I Don’t Need His Money.”
Legendary actor Dharmendra’s passing has left fans mourning the end of an iconic era in Indian cinema. As tributes continue to pour in, a new conversation has surfaced around the future of his estimated ₹400 crore estate. With a large family, two marriages, and children from both, the question of inheritance has naturally drawn public curiosity.
Dharmendra is survived by his first wife Prakash Kaur and their four children—Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Vijeta, and Ajeeta—as well as his second wife, actress and politician Hema Malini, and their daughters Esha Deol and Ahana Deol.
In a recent interaction, Hema Malini addressed speculations about the distribution of Dharmendra’s wealth. Brushing aside the chatter, she said, “I don’t need his money. He has given me and my daughters enough love and respect. That’s our biggest inheritance.”
Industry sources suggest that Dharmendra had already made clear arrangements to ensure a fair division of his assets. While official details remain private, it is expected that his estate will be divided among all his children, with special provisions for family properties and ancestral assets.
Despite the curiosity surrounding the matter, both the Deol and Malini families have maintained dignity and unity during this period of grief. Those close to the family emphasize that their focus remains on honoring Dharmendra’s legacy rather than speculating about wealth.
As fans remember the warmth, charm, and cinematic brilliance Dharmendra brought to Indian cinema, the discussion around his estate serves as a reminder of the personal stories that lie behind public figures—and the relationships that matter far more than material inheritance.
