During a conversation with news agency IANS, he said, “I used to be a big star once upon a time but things didn’t work out. My market value went down. I went through a phase where I couldn’t understand why this happened and I started giving up.”
Bobby Deol then recalled a time when his kids wondered why his father was at home. It was only at this point, he realised that it was time to get back to work. He said to IANS, “When I saw my kids noticing me sitting at home, it dawned on me that I am an actor and my job is to perform and play characters, and not just the main lead. As an actor, I realised that I needed to prove myself and that’s how I started looking at things.”
