The entertainment industry is mourning the loss of one of its brightest stars as legendary actor Dharmendra passed away at the age of 89. Among those paying heartfelt tributes is actress and television personality Archana Puran Singh, who shared an emotional post on Instagram remembering her final moments with the beloved actor.
A Final Dance to Remember
Archana Puran Singh, who has consistently expressed her admiration for Dharmendra throughout her career, took to social media to mourn the passing of the Bollywood icon. She specifically recalled their last interaction on The Kapil Sharma Show, where they shared a special dance during the episode.
In her emotional Instagram post, Archana wrote, "Words are not enough. There will be no other like Dharamji. That evening, when we danced for a few minutes on the Kapil show, I felt the Universe had granted me one of life's biggest highlights and blessings." She expressed her shock that this joyful moment would become their final meeting.
An Enduring Admiration
The seasoned actress revealed that she has been watching Dharmendra's songs repeatedly since his passing, trying to feel his continued presence. "In the last few days, I have watched his songs on a loop, just to feel he's still here," she confessed in her heartfelt caption.
Archana described Dharmendra's unique qualities that made him special both on and off screen. "His kindness shone from his eyes, his graciousness from every word he uttered. His smile as shy as a young boy's, only he could make a person feel hugged with just a handshake," she remembered fondly.
From Fan to Co-performer
In her touching tribute, Archana Puran Singh revealed that her admiration for Dharmendra began in her younger days. She expressed amazement at how life had brought her from being a distant admirer to someone who actually got to interact with her idol.
"Dharamji, the younger me would never have even imagined getting the chance to ever see you, let alone get the chance to perform with you, talk to you and express just how much I have always been a fan of you as an actor and even more, as an almost childlike, beautiful human being," she wrote.
The actress concluded her emotional message by offering condolences to the Deol family, praying that they find comfort knowing that Dharmendra "rests in eternal peace in the arms of the Almighty." She acknowledged that while his passing has left millions heartbroken, the world is richer for having experienced his presence for so many decades.
Along with her moving words, Archana shared a series of photographs from their time together on The Kapil Sharma Show, capturing the joyful moments they shared during what would become their final meeting.
