Dharmendra, one of Bollywood's most enduring leading men, died in Mumbai on Monday.

The actor's cause of death wasn't released to the public. He'd spent time in and out of the hospital in the weeks prior to his death, according to The New York Times.

Dharmendra appeared in romance films at the start of his career in the 1960s and later branched out into action and comedy-centric projects.

Dharmendra was elected to the lower house of the Indian Parliament in 2004, and later spoke of his regret about getting into politics.

Several of Dharmendra's children followed him into acting, including his sons Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol from his first wife, Prakash Kaur.

He married his frequent costar Hema Malini in 1980, and they welcomed two children, one of whom -- daughter Esha -- became an actress.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tribute to the late actor on X, writing Dharmendra's death marked the "end of an era in Indian cinema."

Dharmendra was 89.

While his appearance was special for the crowd, it may have been more meaningful for Rock. He revealed to the screaming fans, "Life comes full circle, because I started my career here on this lot filming a little movie you guys might have seen called 'The Scorpion King,' so it's really cool to come back."

The Kessler Twins paid thousands for their assisted suicides ... TMZ has learned.

Wega Wetzel -- a spokesperson for the assisted suicide company DGHS -- tells TMZ ... the going rate for one assisted suicide is 4,000 euros per person, or 6,000 euros for two people together -- that's about $4,600 and $7,000, respectively. This covers the cost of complete care by doctors and lawyers, including expenses.

Alice and Ellen Kessler contacted DGHS -- which, when translated, stands for German Society for Humane Dying -- more than a year ago because they wanted to end their lives with dignity on the same day together, Wetzel says.
