Bobby Deol is addressing what has been weighing on him—and he's not holding back. In a candid chat with Zoom, the actor opened up about losing his father Dharmendra and the media attention that engulfed his family during their crisis.
"Life is like that—things keep happening, and you are never really prepared for them. So, it has been tough, but I still feel very positive. I can feel his energy, his warmth," Bobby said.
But what bothered the family most was the paparazzi attention. He is directly referencing the incident where brother Sunny Deol had snapped at photographers during Dharmendra's health crisis—a moment that made headlines.
"Just because my family is a famous family, people notice these things. But in any normal town, anywhere, when something goes wrong, people just want a video and put it on Instagram," Bobby said. "They don't see the pain that the person or the family is going through."
Bobby is calling out the entire culture of turning tragedy into content. "I think people need to realise that. Once they do, they may stop getting carried away with reels and things like that," he added.
Despite the grief, Bobby insists he feels his father's presence everywhere. "I feel my father is everywhere with me, around me, within me. Even right now, he is here, watching me, and he is very proud," he said.
Behind every celebrity moment caught on camera is a real family dealing with loss. Work-wise, Bobby is preparing for Yash Raj Films' Alpha alongside Alia Bhatt and Sharvari.
