He was the Veeru of Sholay, yes we are talking about Dharmendra! He played a double role in the same film. He played two sons of an  arrogant father, out of which one of the sons falls in love with a tribal girl. The tribal girl was played by none other Jayalalithaa. She played a spunky, bubbly, care-a-damn character. Although the movie didn’t fare well and sank without a trace, a particular song from the same movie created a lot of noise, courtesy Jayalalithaa’s graceful dance.
Dharmendra while speaking to Quint revealed that the late TN CM  was quite unlike her character – Quiet, graceful and slightly reserved.  “She was very quiet, very graceful and only focused on her work. She didn’t speak much on the sets. And we all respected her privacy. In the film, she played a chirpy, bubbly character similar to what Hema played in Sholay many years later. But in person she was quite the opposite. Very dignified, graceful and quiet.” 
Here’s that song that created a lot of noise. She danced like a dream. Jayalalithaa was not just a political leader. She was a shining personality that inspired people and will continue to so do even today…
