Karan Johar asked Sunny Deol what he likes and dislikes about certain Bollywood stars.
Karan Johar’s chat show ‘Koffee With Karan 8’ started with a bang after celebrity couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh appeared as guests on the first episode. The duo candidly spoke about a range of topics including their relationship, marriage and mental health. Several of their statements went viral from ‘KWK 8’. And the second episode of 'Koffee With Karan 8' saw siblings Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol make an appearance together. The rapid fire round turned out to be a truly entertaining segment.
In the rapid fire segment, Karan Johar asked Sunny Deol what he likes and dislikes about certain Bollywood stars.
When KJo asked him about Shah Rukh Khan, whom he has had a long feud with, Sunny Deol said that he likes how "hard working" SRK is.
When asked to mention the one thing he dislikes about SRK, Sunny Deol said the former makes actors "a commodity". Hearing this, KJo replied, "Oh god."
When asked about Akshay Kumar, Sunny Deol said that he appreciates his punctuality, however he dislikes that he does too many movies every single year.
For the unversed, Akshay Kumar has had three releases in 2023 -- 'Selfiee', 'OMG 2', and 'Mission Raniganj'. Akshay Kumar also has almost half a dozen movies in the pipeline for 2024. These include 'Welcome To The Jungle', 'Hera Pheri 3', 'Soorarai Pottru' remake, 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' and 'Singham Again'.
Talking about Salman Khan, Sunny Deol said that he likes that the actor has a big heart, but he dislikes how he is always trying to make everyone a "bodybuilder".
In the episode, Bobby Deol opened up about the lowest point of his career as he struggled to find work in the film industry. Bobby Deol also revealed that he ended up turning to alcohol for solace.
“I gave up, I started pitying myself. I just took on drinking a lot, I was sitting at home. I used to keep cursing and saying, why don’t people take me? I am good, why don’t they want to work with me? I think I became so negative about everything, that there was no positivity coming from me. I used to sit at home, my wife worked," he said.
“Suddenly I heard my son saying, you know mom, papa sits at home and you go to work everyday. Something snapped in me. I just said, no I can’t! It was a slow process, when I got out of it, it took me time to get into the right mind frame to become okay. It can’t happen overnight," he added.
On the work front, Bobby Deol will next be seen as an antagonist in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's 'Animal', which also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna.
The movie is scheduled for release in theatres on December 1. As per reports, Bobby Deol is playing the role of a cannibal in the film.
Talking about Sunny Deol, he was last seen in 'Gadar 2', and the Anil Sharma-directorial is currently the second highest-grossing Hindi film of all time.
