Sunny Deol is consolidating his production house, Vijeta Films. And with a purpose.
Reveals the actor, “By now, I know that my elder son Rocky (his real name is Karan but we all call him Rocky) would want to join the industry. He’s turning 18 this year. The other son Rajvir will be turning 14. Both are still studying in Mumbai and they want to get into films.”
Sunny confesses, “I’m afraid they won’t see the struggle my dad saw; or for that matter, the struggle Bobby and I had to face. They’re missing out on something vital.”
Sunny confesses he’s a strict father, “just like our dad was with us. I’ve also been very strict with Bobby. But there’s nothing I’d say no to him for.”
“I’ll encourage Rocky in every way possible. It’s not that my children don’t know any other life. We’ve brought them up like normal kids and we’re quite cut off from the film industry’s social circuit. But they’re passionate about cinema because that’s what they’ve seen their father and grandfather doing.”
Sunny has often set his own career aside for his kid brother’s sake. “That may be so. But still my repertoire of films is quite unique. I’ll be producing only entertaining films. I won’t be doing serious films like Chamku. I don’t think people want to see that. Even as a viewer, I don’t want to see a film that doesn’t entertain me.”
