The second episode of Koffee With Karan season 8 has finally dropped and it was a heartwarming one.
The guests Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol are one of the most famous sibling duos in the film industry but are seldom seen in the public eye. This episode turned out to be quite an eye opener for the fans. As macho as this brother duo looks, they are softies at heart.?
Their emotional sides have won hearts as the internet is buzzing with praises for them.
With further ado, here are all the major highlights of the episode:
When KJo asked about the clash between the two big movies, Sunny said, "Obviously, one wanted the film to be a hit and I had an idea that the film would do well but how well I had no idea. The original Gadar became a massive hit instantly. Everyone that time also there were shows (referring to Akshay Kumar's OMG 2 which was released on the same day as Gadar 2) around the clock. I had no idea what the hell was happening but that's what I was hearing because back then, we used to just leave to shoot the next film."
He continued further, ¡°I asked him. I said, ¡®Please don¡¯t do it if it¡¯s in your hands¡¯. But he said, ¡®No, the studio and all¡'¡±.
Sunny then said that he was told ¡®two films can release¡¯ simultaneously at the box office without affecting each other. ¡°I said, ¡®Okay, go ahead, I can just request, I can¡¯t do anything more than that¡¯.¡±?
He further added, "There were no promotions for films. But this time, because I started off nearly two months before when we released part one of it I started feeling the buzz from the people, from the audience, the way they were coming and interacting, and how happy they were. I just felt so much love that I remember on the 10th of August when I was coming home, I remember Bobby being there, Papa being there, I was just laughing and crying as if something was happening within me."??
With the two brothers on the couch, it was obvious that the topic of their father and veteran actor Dharmendra kissing Shabana Azmi in Karan Johar's movie Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani would come up.?
Bobby said, "I loved the film. Everyone was so good, Ranveer Singh. He did an awesome job. I'm a big fan of Alia Bhatt. She was also amazing. And then you (to KJo) chose dad and I'm not saying because he is my father but he was magical as that character. We joke about it that papa kissed on screen and all that. Everyone said that he was so cute."
Sunny said, "I said my dad can do whatever he likes and he gets away with it."
KJo¡¯s surprise segment consisted of Sunny Deol¡¯s sons Karan Deol and Rajveer Deol Dharmendra, and Bobby Deol¡¯s son Aaryaman Deol's messages.?
Karan and Rajveer described their dad in three words - "¡¯Emotional, loving, headstrong¡¯ and ¡®extremely caring, tough, never give up kind of attitude¡¯".
Aaryaman described Bobby in three words as well - "loving, encouraging, and understanding."?
Watching Dharmendra onscreen is always heart melting and this time around, he had the sweetest things to say for his sons.
He said, ¡°Har bacha kaise bhi ho, baap ke saamne bheegi billi bann jata hai aur baap se dur hote hi sher ban jata hai. Sunny ke andar ek bachha hai jo samajhdaar hogaya hai aur usse samajhdaar hona chahiye."
"Bobby sabse ladla hai, hamesha chota bachha jo hai usko zyada hi pyaar karte hain. Par Bobby kehte hain ki aap Sunny se zyada pyaar karte hain mujhse nahi", the veteran actor continued.
He concluded the message by saying, "I am proud of you, my sons."?
This message made both Sunny and Bobby really emotional and they both could be seen shedding tears.
In what can be called a never-seen-coming surprise, it is revealed that Sunny Deol possesses a huge collection of Teddy Bears. His son Karan made that big revelation in his message. Post this, Sunny could be seen smiling in an ¡®you caught me¡¯ way! He then disclosed that he picks up teddy bears which are cute and unique. He even has a pocket sized one that he keeps it on himself sometimes. When asked why such a fixation with Teddy Bears, Sunny said it¡¯s comforting to cuddle with them. Isn¡¯t this just lovely?
The Deol brothers also spoke about Esha Deol and Ahana Deol and said that they will always be their sisters and they love each other very much.?
During the rapid fire round, Karan asked Sunny to list one good quality and one bad quality of his peers. First up was Shah Rukh Khan, his long time foe-turned-friend recently.?Sunny complimented him for his hard work but expressed how he has made ¡®actors a commodity¡¯.?
For Akshay Kumar, Sunny said he liked how disciplined he is but disliked the fact that he does too many movies every year.
He spoke about the phase from 2013 to 2017 when he had no work, and said, ¡°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.¡±
Bobby Deol emphasized that their parents were not from the industry but earned success through their own efforts. He expressed, "We didn't choose to be born to them. We were blessed to be born to them. We didn't ask, we got it."?
Bobby questioned why they should feel the brunt of it. He then cited his career as an example of how being a star kid doesn't guarantee success.Sunny then pointed out that he got success with his film Gadar 2 after 20 years and also highlighted the struggle he faced during that period.
