Filmy Story: Dev Anand’s craze in Bollywood history has been worth watching. Dev Anand ruled hundreds of hearts with his acting, style and looks. Even today, decades later, there is no dearth of his fans. Dev Anand worked with the best and top actresses of his time and one of these actresses is Bollywood’s dream girl Hema Malini.
Hema Malini worked with Dev Anand in the film ‘Johnny Mera Naam’ released in 1970. While Dev Anand was counted among the superstars at that time, Hema Malini was new in the industry. In such a situation, it was not easy for the actress to work with a superstar like Dev Anand. On top of that, she was asked to do a scene with Dev Anand which made Hema feel embarrassed just thinking about it.
Hema was nervous to sit on Dev Anand’s lap
‘Johnny Mera Naam’ was a crime film which was directed by Dev Anand’s brother Vijay Anand. Years later, when Dev Anand’s 100th birth anniversary came, Gemma Malini shared the story of the shooting of a song from this film. Hema told that there was a scene in the song in which Hema had to sit on Dev Anand’s lap. Now it was not easy for a new girl in the world of acting to do such a scene with a star like Dev Anand.
