Dono trailer launch: Sooraj Barjatya reveals that Sunny Deol asked him to launch Rajveer: “Main ghabra gaya and the first thing I told Sunny is that ‘Lekin iss film mein action nahin hai’” : Bollywood News

The trailer launch of Dono was held today in Mumbai and was highly memorable as it was attended not just by the film’s cast and crew but also Sunny Deol, Poonam Dhillon, Ashok Thakeria, Sooraj Barjatya, Kamal Kumar Barjatya and Ajit Kumar Barjatya. The love story, which releases on October 5, launches Sunny Deol’s son Rajveer Deol and Poonam Dhillon and Ashok Thakeria’s daughter Paloma. That’s not all. It is also the directorial debut of Sooraj Barjatya’s son, Avnish S Barjatya.

Sooraj Barjatya, in a rare instance, raised laughs as he spoke how the film was conceptualized. He said, “I always thought that Avnish will become a chartered accountant! One day he told me that he wants to be a director. I was silent but then I told him only two things, which my father taught me, that if you want to be a director, you should have the need to say something. Tab hi director bano. I am so happy that with this film, he said something and that he had a voice.”

He continued, “When Avnish narrated the concept, I told him you are free to make what you want but I told him to remember that tumhari film dekhne Rajshri ki audience bhi aayegi.”

Sooraj Barjatya then revealed that Sunny Deol asked him to launch Rajveer with Dono saying, “Then Sunny ji called me ki 'Suna hai ki aap bete ki picture bana rahe ho'. I don't know if Rajveer knows about this episode. Main ghabra gaya and the first thing I told Sunny is that ‘Lekin iss film mein action nahin hai’! He told me, ‘It’s ok. I want a subject which my son will love and it should be from the heart’.”

He also added, “Then Poonam ji spoke to my sister, Anuradha. The first pictures we saw of Paloma was where she was holding a gun! Yet, both Avnish and I realized that she’ll suit the part of Meghna.”
