Rajveer Deol is among the new crop of actors that entered the world of cinema in 2023. The handsome lad is the grandson of Dharmendra and the younger son of Sunny Deol. He is the third Deol generation to venture into acting. Rajveer made his debut with Dono, which released on October 5. It also starred Poonam Dhillon's daughter Paloma. 


Ahead of his father Sunny Deol's birthday, Rajveer shared with Mid-Day.com in an interview that working with the Gadar 2 star is on his bucket list. Listing the actors with whom he desires to collaborate, Rajveer said, I would love to work with Alia Bhatt, Shraddha Kapoor and Kriti Sanon. A project with Vicky Kaushal and Rajkummar Rao would be a nice idea. Of course, I would also like to say my dad [Sunny Deol] (smiles)."



Rajveer further shared the reaction of his family to his debut film. "My family was at the screening of Dono. They watched the film two months before its release. We showed them the first print. They were happy with the final product. At the screening, my family saw me on the big screen along with other guests and celebrities. It was a happy moment for all of them. To see people appreciate my efforts was the best moment for us," he shared. 

Are his grandfather Dharmendra and father Sunny Deol his harshest critics? Rajveer said, "They can be harsh at times. I have gotten harsh criticism from both of them while growing up. Everyone in my house knows how hard this line is. They don't want to quote it for you. I know people think we might get pampered, but they are the biggest critics because they know how harsh everyone else is. They are just prepping us for that. You do get upset, but you also need to be mature about it and take a hard look in the mirror to improve yourself and work harder because I genuinely want to be good. To be there, I should be able to take my criticism with grace."

Would Rajveer like to play his father Sunny's popular character, Tara Singh, from Gadar in the revamped version? "No, there's only one Tara Singh and there's a uniqueness about my dad and his soul and his energy. I don't think I'll be doing justice to it," he promptly replied.
