NEW DELHI: In a fierce competition, the private television networks spread false rumours of death of Bollywood legend Dharmendra, 89, undergoing treatment at Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital.
The 89-year-old star, known for films such as Phool Aur Patthar, Mera Gaon Mera Desh, Sholay, Khamoshi, Johnny Gaddar, and the upcoming Ikkis, is also an astute businessman whose estimated net worth is Rs 335 crore.
Dharmendra, often called the original He-Man and Garam Dharam, ventured into the culinary and hospitality sectors after cementing his position in the film industry as one of the most bankable stars of Bollywood.
The actor first ventured into the restaurant business with Garam Dharam Dhaba in 2015 in New Delhi. In 2022, he opened another eatery named He-Man on the Karnal Highway, according to Business Insider.
A Sprawling 100-Acre Farmhouse
While Dharmendra lives with his family in Mumbai, he frequently visits his sprawling 100-acre farmhouse in lonavala serene retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
He reportedly plans to expand further into the hospitality business by developing a resort near his Lonavala farmhouse.
