As of October 8th, 2025, Bollywood actor Bobby Deol has been in the industry for 30 years. His elder brother, Sunny Deol, recently took to social media to commemorate this milestone with a nostalgic tribute.
During an exclusive interview last month, Bobby opened up about his childhood relationship with Sunny. He confessed that he was "extremely afraid" of his big brother growing up, not because of any sibling rivalry, but because Sunny had always treated him like a son rather than a sibling.
"He has always treated me like a son. I never got the opportunity to fight with him as I was too afraid," Bobby revealed. He explained that Sunny's intimidating expression, which had made him feared by many, also left little room for any fights between the brothers.
Despite this unique dynamic, the Deol brothers have maintained a strong bond over the years. Sunny's heartfelt social media post, celebrating "Lord Bob's" 30-year journey in Hindi cinema, is a testament to their enduring relationship.
As Bobby continues to enthrall audiences with his recent work, including films like "Animal" and "Love Hostel," his elder brother's unwavering support and guidance have undoubtedly played a crucial role in his success.
