Bollywood actress Esha Deol rang in 2026 with a bittersweet celebration in Dubai, taking a moment amidst the festivities to remember her late father, the legendary Dharmendra.
Sharing a serene photo against the backdrop of the Burj Khalifa, she pointed to the sky with the caption “Love you, papa.
” Her half-brother, Bobby Deol, responded with heart emojis, showing family unity during this emotional time.
Veteran actor Dharmendra passed away recently at the age of 89, leaving the industry and his family in mourning.
While the Deol family navigates this loss, the timing is poignant as Dharmendra’s final film, “Ikkis,” has just been released in theaters. The movie features the late icon in a touching role as the father of a war hero.
The film’s release adds emotional weight to the New Year for the Deols. Special screenings in Mumbai were attended by industry heavyweights like Salman Khan and Sunny Deol, who praised Dharmendra’s moving performance.
As Esha celebrated under the Dubai lights, her tribute served as a reminder of the enduring legacy her father has left behind in Indian cinema.
