Rajveer Deol, the younger son of Sunny Deol, expressed his happiness at being asked to audition for his first film as opposed to his older brother Karan, who was introduced by Sunny. Rajveer, who will make his acting debut in the romantic comedy Dono about coming-of-age, opened up about his big Bollywood break in an interview. Paloma Thakeria, daughter of actor Poonam Dhillon, makes her acting debut in the movie, which will be released on October 5.
In an interview, he stated, “I was prepping up so there was no discussion that my family was going to launch me. After Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas was released, I saw him going through his all-time low. So my biggest challenge is having a fear of not earning it on your own and making it on your own. So when Dono happened, I am glad that they asked me to audition as I don’t want to feel that I am not worth it.”
Rajveer Deol responded when asked if he had ever given him any advice.“We are good pals and we talk telepathically rather than having a conversation (laughs). He told me that I was lucky to be launched outside the family because he saw the difficulty of being launched by the family. He did not have the freedom to choose the character he wanted to play or have a perspective as there are many seniors like my father, who were a part of Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas, so when these people are involved, it puts a chain on an actor to have freedom to explore. He was really happy that I was doing Dono which was not our production.”
The older brother of Rajveer, Karan, who just got married to his longtime lover Drisha Acharya, made his acting debut in the 2019 film Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas, which was co-produced by Sunny Super Sound and directed by their father Sunny Deol.
Avnish S Barjatya, the son of Sooraj R Barjatya, makes his directorial debut with Dono. A celebration of love, relationships, and things of the heart, the movie is billed as an urban tale.
