With due apologies to Shah Rukh Khan, Sunny Deol is the star of 2023, hands-down. His Gadar 2: The Katha Continues created unprecedented havoc at the box office. Today, Deol looks at being the star of the biggest money spinner in the history of Indian cinema.
When I told him this, Sunny replied, “Very honestly, I haven’t been keeping an eye on the numbers. Hamari picture logon ko pasand aayee, bahot pasand aayee, hamare liye yehi kaafi hai (that people like my film immensely is enough for me). All the rest, the best, the biggest and all that makes no difference to me.”
When I ask him if Gadar is possible without Sunny Deol, Sunny dropped his normally humble attitude and stated simply, “At the risk of sounding immodest, let me say, there can be no Gadar without Sunny Deol. I own that character, just like my father owned the characters in Phool Aur Patthar, Sholay, Pratigya and Satyakam. I want my roles to belong only to me. Sunny nahin toh koi bhi nahin.”
Sunny agreed that 2023 has been a terrific year for the Deols. “Dad had Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. He was irreplaceable in his role. Bobby is also doing very well. He is looking terrific in Animal. I had Gadar (2). We Deols couldn’t ask for more,” he said.
