The legendary Dharmendra feels rejuvenated as an actor after the global success of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n “Logon ko <\/em>film aur mera kaam donon bahot pasand aaya hai<\/em>. In fact, the audience has liked everyone in the film. I am lucky to be part of such a successful film. When Karan Johar offered me the part, I immediately liked what I had to do. It may not be a lot of screen time but my characters impacts the entire story,” Dharam Paaji tells Subhash K Jha<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Offers have once again started pouring in, but the one that Dharamji<\/em> has selected is Sriram Raghavan’s Ikkis<\/em>.<\/p>\n “I was in tears when I heard about the brave soldier Arun Khetarpal<\/strong>, who died at the age of 21 in the<\/p>\n I play the soldier’s father, M L Khetarpal, who was a brigadier in the army. Amitabh (Bachchan<\/em>)’s grandson Agastya Nanda is cast as Arun Khetarpal. I am especially happy to be part of this film as it honours a Param vir Chakra-winning soldier.”<\/p>\n Dharmendra has earlier played a soldier in Ramanand Sagar’s Lalkar<\/em> in the 1970s.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Getting into a soldier’s uniform even for a role is very empowering. Ikkis<\/em> brings me and Sriram Raghavan together again after Johnny Gaddaar<\/em><\/strong> in 2007.”<\/p>\n “After that, he made quite a few films like Badlapur<\/em><\/strong> and Andhadhun<\/strong><\/em>, but somehow, we never got around to working together again. Until now. Har cheez ka ek waqt hota hai<\/em>.”<\/p>\n
