Dharmendra expresses opinion on Hollywood work: “My best belongs in my homeland”

In a previous interview, actor Dharmendra discussed his experience working in Hollywood and contrasted it with India. Dharmendra stated that he has “never looked worth it” to work in “the West” in a 2017 interview with Hindustan Times. He talked about the affection he experienced in India as well. We take you back to the actor’s interview with us as he approaches his 88th birthday.

Dharmendra’s remarks regarding his employment in Hollywood, India

“Everyone tries to make it big in the West, but it has never looked worth it to me,” Dharmendra had once observed. With your people, you are the finest in your house and your country. In India, you are the most cherished individual.”

Additionally, he has stated, “You are unlikely to find the same level of love from people anywhere else.” If you are lucky enough to become well-known, you become lost in the spotlight. Nowhere can your job be as great as it can be when you reside with your own people in your own country.
