Jeetendra’s Girlfriend Hema Malini

Jeetendra and Hema Malini earlier shared a passionate relationship. However before either of them got married they were each experiencing issues with their romantic partners. Jeetendra and Shobha were experiencing their own ups and downs while Dharmendra was not committing to Hema Malini.

Hema Malini and Jeetendra decided to be married after too much upheaval and they actually came very close to doing so. Hema and Jeetu may still be married today if it weren’t for a drunk Dharmendra showing up at their wedding location.

Jeetendra’s Girlfriend Sridevi

Jeetendra eventually began acting in numerous South Indian movies. He then met Sridevi at that point. In an effort to promote Sridevi as an actress the actor brought her to Mumbai but soon after rumours of an affair began to circulate. The two actually appeared in numerous films together but Jeetu ji sought to dispel the rumours because he was now an adult and had two children Ekta and Tusshar Kapoor. 

As a result he organised a picture session at his home. Shobha was so enraged by this that she treated Sridevi with extreme coldness. Later Shobha threatened Jeetendra saying that she would leave the house with the kids if he didn’t terminate his association with Sri. Much afterwards Ekta Kapoor admitted it.

Jeetendra’s Girlfriend Jaya Prada
