Esha has earlier shared that she met Prakash only once, when she visited her home to see her uncle, Dharmendra’s brother, who was very sick. “I touched her feet and she left after blessing me,” she shared in the book Hema Malini: Beyond The Dream Girl. Speaking about Prakash, author Vijayakar recalls meeting her briefly and describes her as “a woman who looked radiantly handsome and content.” Even in that short meeting, he saw in her the “extraordinary homemaker, who had allowed Dharmendra every peace, progress and support by being a solid pillar in his life.” He also notes Dharmendra’s own words that Prakash cared for his other family as well.
