Bobby Deol shared a picture of himself with Dharmendra and wrote a heartwarming poem in Hindi. He wrote, “There isn’t as much love in the world as the love you have given all of us. You stood by us in every smile and every falling tear, extended your hand in every difficulty, in the way that only our Dharam could. (Duniya mein itna pyaar nahi jitna aapne hum sabhi ko diya. Har muskurahat, har tapakte aansoo mein saath nibhaya, Har mushkil mein haath badhaya. Us tarah jis tarah sirf hum sab ke Dharam kar sakte the.)
He ended the poem by hoping to be a human being like his great father.
