Since Hariyali Teej is dedicated to celebrate the reunion of Lord Shiva and Mata Parvati, Hema Malini danced to the classical songs that celebrate the same. The festival is majorly celebrated by girls and women who seek blessings from the Gods for their husbands’ long life or to get a good husband. They celebrate the festival by singing, dancing and enjoying the Sawan swings.
On the related note, Hema Malini is a trained Bharatanatyam dancer and she has performed on many stages throughout her life. Her daughters Esha Deol and Ahana Deol are also trained Odissi dancers and they have also accompanied their mother during various performances.

Hema Malini was ruling the headlines recently when pictures and videos of her went viral carrying a sweeping broom during a cleanliness drive in the premises of the Parliament. The actress got trolled for abruptly carrying the broom and failing to sweep the road properly. Soon after the trolling started Hema Malini’s husband, veteran actor Dharmendra also came forward to give an epic reply to a fan who asked if Hema Malini has ever picked the broom at home. He said, "Haan, films mein. Mujhe bhi anari lag rahi thi. Maine magar bachpan mein humesha apni maa ka haath bataya hai. Main jhaadu mein maahir tha. I love cleanliness."
