As the veteran actor Dharmendra died earlier this week, tributes began pouring in not just from the industry but from every corner of the country. Politicians from the PM and President to athletes like Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli also called him an irreplaceable loss and hailed his iconic roles and humble personality. Former athlete PT Usha too took to her social media account to pay her respects to the legend.
