Dharmendra and Sharmila Tagore were one of the most loved on-screen Bollywood couples. Their chemistry and old-school romance added a special charm to every movie they worked together in. It is rare to see the innocence that Sharmila Ji bought into her characters and how Dharmendra, with his charming persona, would win over our hearts. Together, they were one rock-solid couple. As veteran Bollywood actors turn a year older, we are here to take you down memory lane.

Let's revisit some of Sharmila Tagore and Dharmendra's amazing old Bollywood movies that are still a delight to watch.

1. Chupke Chupke - 1975

Of course, this had to top the list. A romantic comedy where Dharam Paaji and Sharmila plan to play a prank on her over-smart brother-in-law, Chupke CHupke will make take you on a roller-coaster of laughter and sweet romance.

2. Ek Mahal Ho Sapno Ka - 1975

A love triangle featuring Dharmendra, Sharmila Tagore, and Leena Chandavarkar was a movie that was way ahead of its time. One of the most unforgettable movies of the Dharam-Sharmila era.

3. Mere Humdum Mere Dost - 1968

Yet another Bollywood movie where Dharmendra and Sharmila looked stunning together. Music directors Laxmikant-Pyarelal added charm to the flop movie with their songs like'Chalo Sajna Jaha Tak Ghata Chale.'


4. Satyakam - 1969

Considered Hrishikesh Mukherjee's best film and Dharmendra's one of the finest performances by far, Satykam bought the two veteran actors back on the big screen. Dharmendra's naturalistic performance and Sharmila's charismatic character made the film a memorable one.

5. Anupama - 1966

It was in Anupama where Hrishikesh Mukherjee bought Dharmendra and Sharmila Tagore together for the first time on screen. Their pair was an instant hit and loved by all Bollywood buffs. The veteran actor who played a writer tried to bring out a shy, withdrawn Uma (Sharmila) from her cocoon. Their performances and chemistry complemented each other well, so much so, that every director back in the day wanted the duo as a leading pair in their film.


Bollywood's Dream Boy turns 87 this year while the dimpled beauty celebrates her 78th birthday. The dynamic duo redefined old-school romance and gave us movies that are cherished to date. Be it romance, drama, comedy, or even action - the two could pull off anything when they came together on screen.

Radio City wishes these two veteran actors a very happy birthday. Thank you for creating cinematic magic for all these years.
