After years of speculation, Dharmendra and daughter Esha Deol will act with each other in a film. And who better than Hema Malini to bring them together? The yesteryear actress-turned-director, who is relaunching her daughter Esha with Tell Me Oh Khuda, wanted husband Dharmendra to play Esha's on-screedn dad. After much persuasion, he has finally agreed to do so. Dharmendra is currently shooting for Yamla Pagla Deewana in Punjab.

Dharmendra and Hema Malini were a popular jodin in the 1970s and '80s. They gave several hits like Dreamgirl, Sholay and Pratigya. Dharmendra has acted with his sons from his first marriage - Sunny and Bobby Deol - in Anil Sharma's Apne and there are plans to bring them together again. However, this is the first time he will act with Esha.
