| Happy Birthday, Sunny Deol |
| The original macho man of Bollywood turns 53 today. For more than two decades, Deol Senior has made his papa proud and kept up the family name with a diverse array of movies. He may be a muscle-flexing superstar, but he is the humblest, most soft-spoken guy you will ever meet. From action to romance to drama, he has done it all and given us a collection of memorable, powerful films. On the occasion of the talented star's birthday, here are movies you can see. |
| Darr, 1993: This Yash Chopra film is widely known as an SRK-Juhi Chawla film but Sunny Deol held his own as the handsome good guy. The chase sequence between him and SRK's maniacal character left us breathless. Every girl wished for a fiance and husband like him. Sunny has never worked with the Chopras again because he felt he was sidelined in the film. |
| Ghayal, 1990: Rajkumar Santoshi's powerful directorial debut not only launched him in the industry but also re-introduced Sunny Deol as the supreme angry action hero of his time. As a brother fighting against the system for justice, you rooted for Sunny from start to finish. It's a brilliant film that keeps gripped and entertained all through. |
| Betaab, 1983: Bollywood welcomed Dharmendra's son with open arms in his endearing debut in this Rahul Rawail film. He and fellow newbie Amrita Singh complemented each other. With RD Burman's lilting score, Betaab makes for a pleasant romantic outing even today. |
| Gadar, 2001: Amisha Patel is still bragging about her landmark film as she has hardly done anything commendable after that. Sunny Deol was absolutely delightful as a romantic truck driver who saves the day. The song Gaddi leke is very popular. It's your ideal Bollywood masala film with an added dash of patriotism. |
| Arjun, 1985: This landmark film is a must-watch, whether you are a Sunny Deol enthusiast or not. It launched him as the angry, fist-raising young man fighting against corruption and Sunny Deol was effortless as Arjun. |
| Damini, 1993: Sunny's disgruntled lawyer character shouting 'taarik pe taarik' is a masterfully captured scene that will be remembered in the history of cinema. Rajkumar Santoshi and Sunny's jodi proved successful once again with the memorable film. |
| Jeet, 1996: Hearts cried when he met his end in this love triangle where he had to vie with Salman Khan for Karisma's affection. He couldn't dance to save his life but he tried very hard in front of an excellent dancer like Karisma in this Raj Kanwar film. |
| Arjun Pandit, 1999: You loved and loathed his character simultaneously. It was a role only Sunny could ably pull off. He and Juhi had natural chemistry. The use of the Gayatri Mantra was perfect. |
| Border, 1997: This is JP Dutta's finest film ever. He has not outdone himself since then. The touching, tear-inducing tale of soldiers is a must-see and Sunny delivered his most heartfelt performance in the well-made film. |
| The Hero - Love Story of a Spy, 2003: This masala flick featured Sunny in several avatars doing a Mission: Impossible. Some loved it while some hated it. It also marked the debut of Priyanka Chopra and Preity was adorable as ever. Watch this Anil Sharma flick for comedy, romance, drama and action and don't stress your brains over it. |
