October 6, 2025, marks 30 years since Bobby Deol made his debut with Barsaat. Over three decades, his career has been a rollercoaster — soaring highs, challenging lows, and a remarkable comeback that could fill an entire film script. From being the chocolate-box hero and Dharmendra’s son to emerging as a versatile actor embracing shades of grey, Bobby has continually reinvented himself.
Debuting opposite Twinkle Khanna in Barsaat on October 6, 1995, Bobby quickly became a household name. He delivered hits like Gupt, Soldier, Bichhoo, and Ajnabee, but later faced a series of flops that tested his resilience. Reflecting on those tough times, Bobby said, “In your life, have you ever felt you’ve lost everything and have no one to help you? That’s exactly what I went through… a horrible place to be.” Despite the struggles, his determination and self-belief allowed him to rise again.
Bobby credits much of his comeback to the unwavering support of his family, especially his father Dharmendra, and the love of his fans. “The love they give me gives me so much energy… it’s something no one can understand unless you go through those bad times and come back,” he shared. He also acknowledged the support of superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, who played crucial roles during his career slump.
The turning point in his second innings came with Class of ‘83 in 2020, produced by Red Chillies Entertainment, where he played the dean of a police academy. He followed it with intense roles in Love Hostel, Aashram, and Animal, showcasing a darker and more complex side of his craft. Recently, he impressed audiences with his performance in Netflix’s The Ba**ds of Bollywood*, marking the directorial debut of Aryan Khan. Bobby said, “It felt great to be part of Aryan’s vision — young, eager, and passionate about storytelling.”
Reflecting on his journey, Bobby emphasized the lessons learned: “You can’t take things for granted. You have to respect everything in life and focus on what you truly love — for me, that’s my work.” Looking ahead, he remains optimistic about the future, with exciting projects in the pipeline like Anurag Kashyap’s Bandar, Alpha with Alia Bhatt, and Jan Nayagan with Tamil actor-politician Vijay.
From a star kid to a seasoned actor who has conquered multiple phases of his career, Bobby Deol’s 30-year journey is a testament to resilience, hard work, and the enduring magic of talent.
