Renowned Bollywood actor Dharmendra has passed away at the age of 89, marking the end of an era for Indian cinema. He died at his Mumbai residence on November 24, 2025, after a period of fluctuating health. While the family is yet to provide an official statement, his recent hospitalizations had raised concerns among his fans. Earlier in November, Dharmendra was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital, leading to visits from family and fellow celebrities, though he was later reported to be stable. His team had previously downplayed an October hospitalization as a routine check-up. False death rumors had also circulated, prompting his daughters to issue public statements confirming his stable condition and urging for privacy. The veteran actor, who was set to celebrate his 90th birthday in December, leaves behind a rich legacy of work that captivated audiences for decades. His impact on cinema is undeniable, and his absence will be keenly felt by all who admired his work.
