Sunny Deol was made to deliver dialogues in front of entire industry, Bobby Deol’s first director Shekhar Kapur ran away: Deol brothers reveal their debut film experiences

Kapil joked and asked Bobby if his first director was nervous to work with him given Sunny and Dharmendra’s stardom. The actor laughed and said, “Maybe that’s why Shekhar Kapur ran away, he was scared. Raj (Rajkumar Santoshi) directed me later. But I never thought that I was under pressure. Papa means everything to me. He is a legend. Bhaiya is a superstar.”

Bobby Deol’s Bollywood debut with Barsaat faced numerous hurdles before its 1995 release. Bobby had previously revealed that Shekhar left the project for Bandit Queen after 27 days of shooting. Subsequently, filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi took over.

Bobby then talked about how 2023 has been a great year for the Deols. He said, “But today, I am happy about the fact that bhaiya waited 22 years after Gadar and in the same year, first papa’s film released and the role he played, if anyone else had played that role, it wouldn’t have been as much fun. And then my film was released, that was also a big hit. I am happy about the fact that whenever I see my father, I see happiness in his eyes. When I went home after a week, papa was always on Instagram. He said, ‘Bob, people are crazy about you.’” I said, ‘Papa, I am your son, why wouldn’t they be crazy about me?’”
