Sunny Deol opened up about his family’s newfound success
Sunny Deol attended the trailer launch of his upcoming film, Jaat, on March 25, 2025. During the event, he shared his thoughts on the resurgence of the Deol family in Bollywood in terms of popularity. He also spoke about the recent success of his brother, Bobby Deol’s success, after Animal and Aashram.
According to a report by India Today, Sunny Deol stated that it was time for his family to receive the opportunities that they deserved. He highlighted how the Deols, including his father and veteran actor, Dharmendra, have embarked on a fresh chapter in their respective careers within the entertainment industry. When he was questioned about whether this new inning in his career had put any pressure on his shoulders, Sunny responded by stating how he had been waiting to get all the work he had been offered.
Sunny Deol responded and shared that he doesn’t think there is any pressure as, in his opinion, it was high time work like this came their way. He added that it has taken the Deol family years to get to this point. However, he is glad that it is happening now, as he believes that one should keep fighting and not back off, as one never knows when the time will come. He was quoted as saying:
“I don’t think it adds pressure. It’s high time (we got this kind of work). We were waiting for it. It always takes us years back. That’s how the family has been, and that’s how we are. Ise kehte hain aap mehnat karo, waqt kab ayega, pata nahi. Aur ladte raho, hato mat.”
