Dharmendra Says COVID-19 Vaccine Is Absolutely Safe, Advocates, 'Get Over Your Apprehensions And Get The Jab Soonest' - EXCLUSIVE
The iconic veteran actor Dharmendra wants to reassure his fans that the Covid vaccine is absolutely safe. “I took my first dose last month. There were no side effects at all. Not even a slight fever. I am now going to take the second dose. I want everyone to know that the vaccine is absolutely safe. So get  over your  apprehensions and take the jab the soonest possible,” says Dharamji, worried by the spike in the  Covid numbers. 

“Everyone thought the virus  would recede this year. But it is  back worse than last year. So many of my beloved colleagues  and juniors in the film industry are getting it. It is heartbreaking to see work and humanbeings  suffering. The vaccination is the  only possible solution. We have  to trust in the vaccine and in God.”

The legendary Dharmendra has  been locked way  in his farmhouse during the pandemic. "I recommend the vaccination   to all, specially the elders. If we must stop this terrible virus social distancing and the vaccination are the only way out. I am  very saddened to see people in Mumbai not wearing their masks, not following  Covid guidelines. By pretending that  the  pandemic is gone,it won’t go away. We must continue to be  very careful,” says Dharamji.

During the last one year when he has been isolated at his farmhouse Dharamji has not met any member  of his family.

“I miss being with my loved ones. Lekin akele rehne ka bhi apna maza hai (there is  something to be said about being on your own). I write  a lot of poetry. I listen to music. I spend my time gardening. It’s been a peaceful time. I’ve enjoyed  the  time I had to myself,” says Dharamji.
