The beautiful clip starts with a picture from his childhood while the voiceover behind explains the birth of Dharmendra in Nasrali, a village in Ludhiana district where talent was born to enthrall people with his charisma. Slowly, the video showcases the senior actor’s journey during his teenage age when he emerged as the winner of Filmfare magazine's nationally organised new talent award.

The clip spoke about several rejections that the actor faced in the industry as he was even asked “to leave an office as they were not looking for a hockey player” after looking at some of his portfolio pictures. While captioning the post, the veteran actor and producer wrote, “Bahaane.... tlaash leeta hoon ....baat karne ke.....”
