Alcohol destroyed my acting career, Dharmendra

Super
star and action hero of yesteryears Dharmendra gets candid in an interview and
confronts that alcoholism destroyed his career. He is playing his second stint
in Bollywood and is experimenting with different roles.


During
the promotion of his movie Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 in Delhi, the actor said," I don't drink these days. I had
destroyed myself as an actor with my drinking habit in the past. I believe in
humanity now and have learnt the business of film making. We three (Sunny,
Bobby and I) worked really hard for this film. We are leaving no stone
un-turned for the promotions".


77
years old Dharmendra seems full of energy and enthusiasm after leaving alcohol
in 2011 after he faced several health issues. These days he is busy promoting
his upcoming film' Yamla Pagla Deewana 2' where this action hero is playing a
comedy role. Dharmendra is also the producer of this movie. Dharmendra is
acting in this movie along with his two sons Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol
respectively. This movie is a sequel of the hit movie, Yamla Pagla
Deewana which was released in 2011. Like last movie in this movie also,
Dharmendra is playing a conman. However, when asked about his role in the movie
Dharmendra joked and said," "We
auditioned many girls for playing Sunny's love interest in the film. We found
beautiful Kristina Akheeva for him and I got jealous. I really wanted to play
his character so that I could have romanced her". The action hero is known for
his good sense of humour.


Dharmendra
earlier made an emotional family movie' Apne' with his actor sons but the movie
did not get a welcome response from the box office. It was a sentimental movie.
After the failure of this movie, the actor decided to try some other genre and
hence came up with Yamla Pagla Deewana. "We three came together on-screen
for the first time with 'Apne'. People liked our film but they said it was too
emotional. So, I thought that next time we will do a comedy film and make my
audience laugh," said
Dharmendra.


If the
sequel of Yamla Pagla Deewana does business like the first one, Producer of the
film Dharmendra has plans to go for the third sequel. When asked if he is
considering a third sequel the actor announced "We
are looking forward to the third part and it will be much better and bigger
than this. But let's see the second installment's response first.


Yamla
Pagla Deewana 2 is getting released in theaters this Friday. Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 - Movie Stills
