ALL ABOUT SUNNY DEOL, sunny deol upcoming film GHAYAL ONCE AGAIN, sunny deol Bhaiya ji Superhit

Sunny Deol’s “Bhaiya ji...Superhitt” has wrapped up its Mumbai schedule and the cast and crew will soon be heading to Benares in August for a 30-day schedule to complete the last leg of the family entertainer.

And never mind the numerology, with Deol’s back-to-back bad turns — since 2000, his only films on the plus side have been “The Hero,” his own production “Indian,”  the blockbuster “Gadar-Ek Prem Katha” and the Deol home production’s “Apne” and “Yamla Pagla Deewana” — a good performance is expected.Produced by Chirag Dhariwal and presented by Metro Movies, the film has been written and directed by Neeraj Pathak and is an action-comedy, with Deol in a double role.

The fun film also stars Preity Zinta, Arshad Warsi, Shreyas Talpade, Ashutosh Rana, Sanjay Mishra, Manoj Joshi and Mukul Dev.Deol’s “I Love NY” has not even got a decent release or promotion — the film did not even have a press screening — while “Mohalla Assi” with its controversial content is still stagnating, and “Ghayal Once Again,” which he is directing, is also expected this year, but is, sadly, not really eagerly awaited.Here’s hoping that bhaiya gets a super hit.

No good action films being made today: Sunny Deol

Sunny Deol is shooting the sequel to Ghayal with Dan Bradley.

His last release, Singh Saab The Great (2013), didn’t do well at the box office. But Sunny Deol has better hopes from the project he is currently working on — the sequel to his 1990 hit, Ghayal. “The sequel is being made after 25 years. Sometimes, it feels a bit odd, as a lot of time has passed since the original released. But the good thing is that it’s still fresh in our minds,” says the actor, who is also producing and directing the new instalment.


Action was an integral part of Ghayal, but 25 years have seen a sea change in the way action sequences are shown in films today. However, Sunny says that he is not bothered about that. “My film is beyond current action films. No good action films are being made today. I have already done the kind of action sequences that actors do in today’s films. The most important thing is to have a good story,” says the 58-year-old.

The sequel will also see a cameo by Meenakshi Sheshadri, who was also part of the original. Since the actress has not been doing films for the past several years, was it difficult to convince her to face the camera again? “We didn’t really have to convince her.  Once you are an actor, you always remain one. Sunil Saini, the co-producer of the film, spoke to her and she agreed. Meeting her will be like a reunion, as we haven’t met in the longest time,” says Sunny.

The third-generation Deol, Karan, has been rumored off and on to be making his screen debut. But his father, Sunny Deol, has recently revealed that his debut script has been locked now. Sunny, who did not see eye-to-eye with many directors on “Ghayal Once Again” and so had to return to directing 16 years after “Dillagi,” has decided to direct his son as well.
