When Dharmendra from the small town of Sahnewal in Punjab reached Bombay by train, no one had thought that this 'Jatt Yamla Pagla Deewana' handsome young man from Punjab would one day rule Bollywood. Dharmendra is an actor who left his mark in the film industry not only as an action hero but also in comedy.
Even when people retire at the age of 88 and relax at home with their grandchildren, they are still competing on screen with stars half their age. Not only this, even today people call him the He-Man of Bollywood. If you know the fitness and daily routine of Bollywood's own man Dharmendra, you will be surprised.
Dharam Paaji has been conscious about fitness since the beginning of his career till today. Would you believe that Bollywood stars go to the gym to keep their body and themselves fit, but Dharam Paaji never went to the gym. Hee Man himself once told that he has been active in farming since childhood. They used to plow the fields and draw water from wells. Due to this, he never needed to go to the gym for fitness.
There were so many activities in his daily work that there was no need to do anything different for fitness. Now the biggest question is what is he eating, who is fit even at this age and is doing films. Today, Dharmendra is not able to do as much exercise as per his age but he takes full care of his fitness.
Talking about his daily routine, he does cycling for 30 minutes every day. Dharmendra's diet is very simple. They follow a zero sugar diet. Zero sugar means there is no sugar in any of their foods.
You will be surprised to know that they eat turnip and turnip vegetable with great enthusiasm. His son Sunny Deol had also told in one of his interviews that Dharmendra's favorite is bottle gourd. This type of diet helps them stay active and healthy.
