Jaat: Sunny Deol Hails Mythri & Slams Bollywood

At the Jaat trailer launch, Sunny Deol didn’t hold back while praising Mythri Movie Makers, the film’s producers. He stated, “I want our Bombay producers to learn from them.

Only then will it become Hindi cinema and not Bollywood. Bollywood producers should learn how to make cinema. Films are made with love and passion, not like mere projects.”

Sunny pointed out that South Indian producers prioritize the story and director’s vision without interference, ensuring a seamless production process.

He went so far as to say, “I immediately want to do one more film with them. Actually, I want to settle down South after working for this film.”

His frustration with Bollywood is evident. While he has multiple projects lined up, including Lahore 1947 (produced by Aamir Khan and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi), Safar, and a remake of the Malayalam film Joseph, many of them remain stalled.

Lahore 1947, in particular which had some hype, has been in the making for three years with no release updates, adding to his frustration.

In contrast, Jaat was wrapped up and scheduled for release on time, earning Sunny’s admiration for Telugu producers Naveen Yerneni, Ravi Shankar Yalamanchili, T.G. Vishwa Prasad, and Vivek Kuchibotla. He commended their professionalism and efficiency.

At 68, Sunny Deol has become a sought-after action hero again following Gadar 2’s massive success. With Jaat, a rural action entertainer catering to the Hindi heartland, he looks set to reclaim his mass appeal. The film is gearing up for release on April 10, and expectations are high.
