Hema Malini, 77, performs ‘Durga’ ballet for Navratri in Hyderabad
Veteran actor and BJP MP Hema Malini, 77, performed her popular dance ballet ‘Durga’ at the Agra Dandiya Navratri Utsav in Hyderabad on 11 October. The event, organised by the Agrawal Samaj at the Classic Convention Center, also marked Maharaja Agrasen Jayanti.
Malini shared photos and videos on Instagram on Monday, 12 October, writing that presenting her favourite ballet on the first day of Navratri felt like a blessing from the goddess. Fans commented in large numbers, calling the performance ‘beautiful’ and ‘divine’.
The actor has staged the same ballet annually during Navratri for many years. Her social-media posts continue to receive thousands of reactions.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both Aaj Tak and TV9 Hindi cover the same event with near-identical neutral reporting, focused on Hema Malini’s age, her classical dance ballet ‘Durga’, and the fan reaction. No editorial slant emerges. The uniform coverage means the outlets differ only in phrasing: Aaj Tak leads with the age angle while TV9 emphasises the goddess role. Both report the 11 October event in Hyderabad and reproduce the actor’s Instagram post verbatim. The absence of any political or critical framing suggests the story is treated as straight entertainment news. Neither outlet discusses her parliamentary work or any controversy, leaving the only concrete item the viral social-media response.
