Sunny Deol open to playing father Dharmendra in biopic

Just a few months ago, veteran actor Dharmendra said he’s not keen on a film being made on his life. However, his son Sunny Deol has said he would be open to playing him if such a film was made.

Talking about who he would like to see step into his father’s shoes, Deol told New Indian Express, “I really have not given it a thought. I know the resemblance is there. It is not only in me, but my son can also play the younger part of the character. But everything is dependent on the story,” said Sunny, who has worked with his father and brother Bobby Deol for their upcoming film Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se”.

About a possible biopic, the actor also said, “It cannot be random. There should be a writer who would invest time on it. It is not going to be that easy because my father will be involved in it. Since everyone knows everything about him, it must be put out in a nice way. Research will not be a problem, because my father is there to share the story”.

Dharmendra will be sharing the screen once again with Sunny and Bobby Deol in the upcoming ‘Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se’. It’s scheduled for release on 31st August.
