Profession
Bobby Deol made his debut in the romantic film Barsaat in 1995, alongside Twinkle Khanna. He played a naive but intelligent young man who moves from a small village to a big city and falls in love while getting involved with corrupt policemen and criminal gangs. The film was a box office success and he won the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debutant.
Deol scored another success in 1997 with the suspense thriller Gupt: The Hidden Truth, in which he played a man accused of murdering his stepfather. The film was widely praised for its gripping storyline and musical score. However, his other film Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya, which he co-starred with Aishwarya Rai in 1997, flopped.
In 1998, Deol released two films – the flop Kalib and the military thriller Soldier. The latter was a huge hit and was the first of many collaborations with director duo Abbas-Mustan. His only release in 1999 was the lackluster love triangle Dheeraj.
In recent years, Deol has played supporting roles in films such as Race 3 (2018) and Housefull 4 (2019), the latter of which was a box office success. He also received critical acclaim for his performance in the web series Aashram (2020), in which he played a villain who claims to be a godman.
