Veteran actor Dharmendra's grandson Karan Deol is finally entering filmdom but in a different role altogether. Karan, who is the son of Dharmendra's eldest son Sunny Deol, has worked as an assistant director for Yamla Pagla Deewana 2, helmed by Sangeeth Sivan and produced by grandfather Dharmendra. "He is young and is learning and enjoying the experience. He has assisted for this film.
He will come here (in film acting) next year...he will join the industry next year," Sunny Deol told reporters at the film's first look launch in Mumbai. Karan Deol has even sung and written a few lines for a song in the film, a sequel to 2011 comedy-drama of the same name. Karan, along with Bobby, his uncle, has crooned a few lines in the song that will be picturised on the three Deols. The song will be reportedly choreographed by Remo D'souza. Meanwhile Karan's mother and Sunny's wife Linda is also making her Bollywood debut as a writer.
"My bahu and Sunny's wife Linda has contributed for this film," veteran actor and Sunny's father Dharmendra told reporters. "She has contributed in writing department. She has given ideas. The story is about UK...the recession. She came up with this great idea and was our writer worked on it," Sunny said. Yamla Pagla Deewana, directed by Samir Karnik, starred Dharmendra and his sons Sunny and Bobby Deol. The sequel will see the three actors reprising their roles.
