Deols are highly underrated. Their success was stupendous. And the biggest thing about them was their absolute lack of PR, marketing, using connections or doing any manipulations or resorting to image management exercises! They are old fashioned, no nonsense guys. Do their work and leave. Wear their hearts on sleeves. These guys got NO media support unlike Khans.

Ghayal, Ghatak, Gadar all released around Aamir's films but still did great. Gadar had whole tirade against it and zilch promotion but it left Lagaan far behind.

Border was biggest hit of 1997 and still among the best patriotic and war films ever made. Even Bobby Deol's Gupt, Soldier and Humraaz made more than some Khan films released in same years.

People talk about Aamir's one National Award Special Jury mention. Sunny Deol had got 2 Special Mention National Awards (Ghayal and Damini).

Media shouted when AB Corp had even one successful film. Vijeta Films' successes were barely mentioned.

Dharmendra had such sway over audiences, it's said people from even remote villages used to load in trucks and travel to cities to watch his films. He too was voted among most handsome men in the world by an international publication in 70s.

Sadly Dharam never got an award except lame lifetime achievement awards at old age. At least he gets listed among top stars ever. But it's crap how Sunny Deol is left out by likes of Filmfare and even Ajay Devgan is included in their anniversary specials, Hindi cinema specials on biggest stars!

Deols still give hits with YPD series unlike one flop overrated family living off past glory (you know who).

They were only too simple and never pandered to media, hence all dues denied.

Well said. The Deol's absolutely never got their due especially Sunny Deol but a lot of it is his own fault too. He took years off at a time trying to build his brother's career, never promoted his films and had 0 PR. He just couldn't adjust to the changing dynamics of the film industry. He also only worked with people he liked working with, consistently saying NO to big banners like Subhash Ghai and Yash Chopra. Its hard to imagine how massive he could've been if he was half as motivated as a Shahrukh Khan.

But a Singh Saab the Great collecting 45 Cr at the Box office, when Sunny Paaji is pushing 60, is a testament to his connect with his fans.

why is that when we praise one, we have to scum another... The Deols, Khans, Kapoors, Mukerjees, Chopras etc etc have all done amazing work in Bollywood...Just stop it please people with these threads (no offence to TO)

Sunny Deol is criminally underrated!

At his peak, he was no less than what Salman is today.

Only 4 actors have given ATBB's in Bollywood in the last 3 decades.

The 3 Khans and Sunny Paaji.

We Love KHANS, We can Boast it... coz we have our right 2 express...

Forget records the Khans are just better.

Dharmendra was good in his day. Sunny was good back when he was still getting roles. The rest are all failures. Gadar was a horrible film, it felt too much like propaganda to me. In fact most of Sunny's films were flimsly disguised and often just overt propaganda which is why I have never liked him.
