Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 8 : The fans of late legendary actor Dharmendra have gathered outside the Juhu residence of the actor to celebrate his 90th birth anniversary.
Dharmendra would have turned 90 today. The legendary star passed away on November 24, just two weeks short of the milestone. To mark his 90th birthday, the Deol family hosted a special fan interaction at his bungalow in Juhu.

One of the fans, who travelled from Bulandshahr in UP, expressed his love for Dharmendra and paid tribute to him by donating plants on his birth anniversary.
"I have a lot of memories. I am a big fan of him. I have been a fan of him since I was 7-8 years old. I watched his film, Maa. That is where my love for him started. I used to watch his films. Even today, I watch only his films. I don't watch anyone else's films. I have a collection of his 325 movies on CD and DVD," said Praveen Kumar.
On the occasion of Dharmendra's 90th birth anniversary, Praveen Kumar said, "I have brought plants as a tribute to him. I will distribute the plants to the fans of Dharmendra who have gathered here. I will give them plants to take home. They will grow them."
