Bobby Deol gets candid with Prithwish Ganguly after months of ‘hibernation’
After over six months in hiding, Bobby Deol is back in the spotlight as his first release of 2008 nears. Known for being media shy, Bobby in a recent interview spoke out saying, “I don’t believe in being overshadowed by others. I need time for my own private life. In fact my whole family is like that. We hardly go for awards or make appearances in reality shows as others do. I can’t handle too much of attention and exposure.”
He adds, “But I’m no one to judge what the others are doing or want to do. I know what I have to do and I act accordingly. I understand it’s important for everyone to be in the loop of things.”
“Chamku (his first release for the year), falls under the catagory of action drama. It is a very realistically shot film about a joint operation between the RAW and the Intelligence Bureau. It the story of a boy who never had choices in his life and is thrown into situations that forces him to do things. It is not a very commercial film in terms of flavour,” Bobby says.
Bobby’s last few films Nanhe Jaisalmer, Naqaab, Apne and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom saw him donning a different avtaar in all these movies. Is it a conscious effort on his part to be different?
“Of course it is and I think every actor is doing that. Great scripts are hard to come by and so you need to be very choosy. I like doing good films each time I decide to do something,” he says.
And will we see him teaming up with his father Dharmendra and brother Sunny Deol again? Is a sequel for Apne in the making?
“Apne was a story by itself. You cannot have a sequel to it but yes three of us are coming together again for a film. Anil Sharma is looking into it. We want to be in a comedy now since in Apne we made people cry a lot,” he adds.
