When Dharmendra slapped Abhay
Abhay Deol had told that once in his childhood, when the driver was taking the car back, Abhay started running fast towards the car. In such a situation, Dharmendra got angry at Abhay and slapped him. The slap was so strong that Abhay shed tears.
Abhay had said, “‘That slap was so strong that my cheeks turned red and I cried loudly. But, Papaji was worried about me and that is why he raised his hand. I later realized that it was my fault. However, later Papaji also regretted hitting me.
