look up to the legendary talent Dilip Kumar.
Dharmendra spoke about it
during an appearance on Colors' TV show "Entertainment Ki Raat@9". The actor
sported a black and grey attire with a stylish hat, read a statement.
While talking to host Saumya Tandon, he said: "In my growing days, I used to
look up to Dilip Kumar sahab. I was in complete awe of his charisma and I think
there can't be anyone like him in this film industry."
He recollected
that he started his career with a photoshoot.
"I was horrible in studies
and wanted to pursue modelling and acting but my father was totally against it.
In those days, the film industry was not looked upon as a respectable career and
he didn't approve of it."
Asked what profession he would have pursued if
he weren't an actor, he said: "If not an actor, I would have been an athlete and
would get a gold medal for India".
