Bobby Deol revealed that his two sons, Aryaman and Dharam, are keen to pursue careers in the entertainment industry, despite his efforts to expose them to different career paths.Speaking on Aap Ki Adalat, Bobby spoke about his children’s interests, talents and why the lure of cinema continues to attract the next generation of the Deol family.Talking about his eldest son, Aryaman, Bobby said, “He is very talented. During Covid, when everyone was stuck at home, he taught himself filmmaking. He learned how to edit films, how to add sound effects, how to do dubbing. He taught himself everything.”The actor also praised his son’s dedication to improving himself physically and creatively.“He has worked on his fitness. He is now 21 years old. He also trained himself in dancing by watching videos on YouTube.
He put in a lot of hard work,” shared Bobby.
“Most of my photos on Instagram are clicked by him”
Bobby revealed that Aryaman later developed a serious interest in photography and spent a year learning from photographer Avinash Gowariker.“He went through a post-Covid phase where he became very anxious. Avinash Gowariker, a very close friend of mine, asked me to send him. Aryaman worked with him for a year and learned photography,” Bobby said.The actor added that many of the photos he posts on social media were actually taken by his son.
“Most of the pictures I upload on Instagram are clicked on. I usually give him credit, but he closed his Instagram account because he doesn’t care about followers,” Bobby revealed.
“Both my sons want to be champions.”
When asked if his son would eventually get into films, Bobby admitted that both his children dream of becoming actors.“Both my sons want to become heroes. What can I do?” He said with a smile.Explaining why acting continues to attract young people, Bobby said: “This industry makes you, whether you are a doctor, an engineer or from any other profession, feel somewhere in your heart that maybe you can become an actor too.”
“I thought he would settle in America.”
Bobby also revealed that he had hoped his eldest son would choose a different career path.“I made my eldest son study finance. He went to NYU and passed with honors. He was really good in studies. I thought maybe he would do something else, settle down in America, build a career there, and we would visit him,” the actor said.However, Aryaman had other plans.“But he wanted to be an actor,” Bobby said.According to the actor, his son is currently training and learning the craft before entering the industry.“He’s learning now. He’s trying to act and work on himself,” Bobby shared.It looks like the family’s passion for cinema will continue to the next generation, with both Aryaman and his younger brother aspiring to follow in the footsteps of their father, uncle Sunny Deol and grandfather Dharmendra.
