Much has changed in Bobby Deol's life through the last year. He made a comeback to stream in Hind Cinema with Race 3, and finally signed on a management company to handle his work.
Having once be rejected by a PR company, Bobby knows that the new development is a sign that things are looking up for him.
"I remember, years ago, I asked one management company to take my work. They refused, they said, 'We are sorry, we can't do anything for you.' I knew that person, he was a friend, so that makes you stronger. I have learnt now how to communicate", Bobby Deol said.
"There is a lot of positive energy everywhere. Everywhere I went, everyone I met, there was this happiness for me. It's not like, 'Aray, we have to interview him'. All you are happy for me and I just have to work harder so that the faces remain the same." Bobby Deol said.
Right now the actor has two projects in his Kitty - Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se and Housefull 4.
Yamla Pagla Deewana was supposed to happen irrespective of Bobby Deol's absence from movies, but Housefull 4 is an outcome of the actor's persuasion, something that he learnt only after he went out of work.
'I started meeting people. I met Sajid Nadiadwala last year, and told him that I really wanted to work with him. He told me, 'I wanted to work with you but things never worked out. I will see' and I said, 'Sajid bhai, I don't want to be main lead. But please I would love to work with you.' And now I have Housefull 4."
Knocking at people's offices for work kight be a recent exercise for him, but the actor wishes he had learnt this during the late '90s, when he peaked in the industry.
"At that time, there were no such practices of knocking at people's offices. People would come to you with work. When I started, a lot of people entered the industry. The competition was increasing. They knew that form them to get a chance, they would have to go to offices, take what's coming before someone takes it. But I was lazy there.
"Now, I realized that you can't just sit at home and wait for work to happen to you. You have to go out and grab some work. There's no ego", Bobby Deol said.
A failure can be your best teacher, and it seems that Bobby Deol is its best student. When the looks back at his journey, there are plenty of takeaways.
