Harking back to the 1990s, Sunny Deol shared a perspective that sheds light on the industry dynamics of that era. A time when he earnestly sought opportunities for his younger brother Bobby Deol to step into the limelight, Sunny revealed that despite their illustrious film lineage, they consciously remained detached from the intricate web of Bollywood cliques. This departure from the norm was not an oversight but a conscious choice, driven by a desire to uphold authenticity over shallow camaraderie.

Intriguingly, Sunny Deol lifted the veil on the seemingly affectionate gestures that were prevalent within the industry during that period. He recalled instances where industry insiders would approach him with hugs and terms of endearment, ostensibly displaying a deep connection and reverence for his family. However, Sunny discerned the insincerity that often lay beneath these gestures. The endearing appellation "Paaji," a term used to show respect to an elder brother, was flippantly employed by many, yet Sunny insisted on its significance, a testament to his reverence for fraternal bonds.

Sunny Deol emphasized that many facets of the industry's landscape persist through time, finding their roots in values and authenticity. He championed the talents of remarkable actors who might not always be in the spotlight but nonetheless contribute significantly to the cinematic realm. As he reminisced about Bobby Deol's entry into the film industry with the 1995 film 'Barsaat,' directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, Sunny highlighted the film's success and the accolades Bobby garnered for his performance. This film marked the beginning of an artistic journey for Bobby, who had the privilege of working with seasoned director Rajkumar Santoshi and Sunny himself in hit movies like 'Ghayal' and 'Damini.'
