Dharmendra and Hema Malini are celebrating their 45th wedding anniversary today, May 2. The couple are proud parents to daughters Esha and Ahana Deol. Esha, like a doting daughter, made their day extra special by dropping a sweet post on Instagram.
The album opens to a vintage film still featuring Dharmendra and Hema Malini in their younger days. The duo gaze into each other's eyes and flash beaming smiles.
The second slide is a beautiful family portrait. Dharmendra and Hema Malini pose together, sitting on a chair. The veteran actress looks ethereal in an off-white, pink-bordered silk saree. Dharmendra rocks a casual avatar wearing a white shirt and grey trousers.
Joining the power couple are their daughters — Esha and Ahana Deol. The sisters twin in ethnic ensembles. Esha exudes elegance in a pink embroidered kurti, while Ahana embraces traditional charm in a green embroidered masterpiece.
Esha Deol's side note read, “Happy anniversary, mamma & papa. You are my world. Love you.”

Our fans and their limitless adulation! What more can I ask of life? Our eternal gratitude to the Almighty for this gift of happiness."
