“My father Dharmendra is the greatest actor, for me”: Sunny Deol

Bollywood actor Sunny Deol recently attended a media conference; we caught him candid about his upcoming venture ‘Ghayal Once Again’, Bollywood debut of his sons and more. It’s there that he said he considered his father Dharmendra the greatest actor.

“My both sons – Karan and Rajveer want to act. I will launch my son next year and I will direct his movie. To be an actor’s son makes life tougher for a person (in Bollywood). My father Dharmendra was the greatest actor and if someone mimics him inappropriately, it makes him angry,”- he said.

When asked about his net project, he answered “When we did the movie, we did not know that it would be a superhit movie. So we decided to make its sequel. The character of Ajay Mehra (lead of the movie) has been made relevant for today”.

Rewards and awards in Bollywood have been subject to controversies almost always. Sunny, in this context, stated that there were those rat races in every field in India and people would go to any extent to attain them. “My father did not get many awards, but he still rules the heart of the people,”– he concluded.
