Filmmaker Anil Sharma feels that actor Sunny Deol brought the trend of good cinema to Bollywood.
The director-actor duo has worked together in movies like Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, The Hero: Love Story of a Spy and Apne.
Tracking Sunny’s film journey, Anil said the actor is the harbinger of modern cinema in India and he, in fact, did it with his debut film Betaab in 1983.
‘I feel the cinema which is considered good cinema in India was started by Sunny’s films. The kind of films like Arjun, Betaab which he did in the starting of his career and the kind of directors with whom he worked, it led to the entry of modern cinema in India,’ said Sharma here Thursday at the teaser launch of his next film Singh Saab The Great. Meanwhile, Anil asserts one has to be very sincere and logical if Sunny has to be roped in for a film and this is something which has not changed about the actor with time. ‘He has worked with best of the directors.
