Anurag Kashyap recalls the time Sunny Deol rejected a script for Dharmendra saying, “Deols don’t die”

Anurag Kashyap revealed that he had met Dharmendra in the 90s for the first time with a film script.

Anurag Kashyap, who recently directed Almost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat starring Alaya F and debutant Karan Mehta, is known for his unconventional cinema. The filmmaker has been recalling his past journey and struggle of late. And in yet another interview, the director-producer reminisced about the 90s and how he met Dharmendra for the first time. During the same time, he also met the legendary actor’s elder son Sunny Deol.

Recalling the incident, Anurag Kashyap was heard telling YouTuber Samdish Bhatia about how he had presented a script to Dharmendra. He opened up on how sweetly the legendary actor reacted saying, “Bohot sweet hain aur bohot cute hain. Unse mila tha, film leke gaya tha, career ki shuruat mein, bohot pehle. Bohot khush hogaye, bole, ‘Beta, bohot time hogaya hai mere mooh pe makeup nahi lagaya. Bohot achi kahani hai tumhari, karte hain.’ (He is very sweet and cute. He was thrilled when he heard the script. He said, ‘Son it’s been a while, since I have put on makeup on my face. Your story is very nice. Let’s do it).”
