The Padma Bhushan awardee had recently come to 'Bigg Boss 15' for the New Year celebrations. The show's host Salman Khan recreated the 'Sholay' moment with the senior actor. Comedian Bharti also performed with Dharmendra on the evergreen song 'Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas' from the actor's 1973 thriller film 'Blackmail'. Later, when Bharti informed about Salman's recent snakebite incident to the contestants inside the Bigg Boss house, Dharmendra instantly added, "Woh saap nahi...sapni hogi," and everyone started laughing.
