Hema Malini

Hema Malini, celebrated for her multifaceted talents encompassing acting, dance, beauty, and style during the vibrant 1970s and early 1980s, was one of the highest-paid actors of her time. Her incredible charm and charisma earned her the title of 'Dream Girl'. However, her career trajectory took an interesting turn as she transitioned into politics, serving as a Member of Parliament in the Rajya Sabha since 2004.
