Bollywood Profile of Sunny Deol


Sunny Deol was born in New Delhi, India, to veteran actor Dharmendra and Prakash Kaur. Sunny Deol born as Ajay Singh Deol changed gears with different roles in several movies. He has a younger brother, Bobby Deol, who is also an actor, and two half-sisters, Esha Deol, an actress and Ahana Deol, from his father's re-marriage to famous actress Hema Malini. He always wanted to be an actor but being the son of the famous actor, Dharmendra, it was difficult being treated normal, so he went to England to study acting. He joined theater called the Old Web Theater in Brimingham, England where he studied theatre and acting. By the time he came back to India, he was ready to face the camera.

Sunny made his debut as a teenage romantic hero in Betaab with debutante actress Amrita Singh. Action roles seemed to be his forte, but he also tried his hand at romantic roles in movies like Sohni Mahiwal and Imtihaan. From romantic hero to the rebellious, unemployed angry young man out to get justice, the blockbuster Ghayal established Sunny as the action hero in Bollywood.

Sunny Deol is married to Pooja Deol. The couple have two sons together, Rajvir and Ranvir Deol. The names which he chose for himself and Bobby Deol in his directorial debut Dillagi. Their have been many rumours linking Sunny Deol to many of his co-stars but none of those rumours affected their marriage. They are happilly married and live close to their extended family in Mumbai, India. Rumoured to have had an affair with Dimple Kapadia.

Sunny Deol was also acclaimed for his performances in movies like Damini, Arjun and Jeet.

Sunny Deol was another puny star son, written off even before the first movie was released. Father Dharmendra's launchpad for his eldest son - Sunny Deol. Not much was expected from these quarters as one had seen quite a few great falls. Remember Kunal Goswami, Kumar Gaurav...? Besides critics believed that he wouldn't measure up to the standards of his illustrious father.
