Sunny Deol once got candid about his personal choices—particularly his long-standing decision to stay away from alcohol. While promoting his son Rajveer’s debut film Dono, the Gadar 2 star opened up about discipline, family values, and one memorable moment that involved a single beer and a lot of misunderstanding.In an interview with Mashable India, Sunny had shared his thoughts on alcohol consumption. He recalled trying alcohol for the first time during his time in England in an attempt to blend in socially. However, he found the experience unpleasant—disliking the bitter taste, strong smell, and resulting headache—and decided it wasn’t for him.Rajveer also recalled a funny incident when his father mistakenly thought he was drunk after having just one beer. Rajveer shared that he had gone to retrieve his charger from beside Sunny’s bed and accidentally tripped over a wire. Sunny, who was half-asleep, caught a whiff of the beer on Rajveer’s breath and assumed he was intoxicated—prompting a reaction that left Rajveer laughing as he recalled the moment.When asked if he remembered the incident, Sunny—son of legendary actor Dharmendra—reflected on the value of discipline in his household. He shared that he didn’t know when his sons began drinking, just as his own father wasn’t aware of many things he did growing up. Sunny believes this sense of distance encourages discipline, acknowledging that children will ultimately make their own choices. He added that despite growing up in a strict family, he still did what he wanted—but never developed a liking for alcohol.Sunny is all set to appear next in Lahore 1947, a film produced by Aamir Khan and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi. The project was officially announced on the Instagram handle of Aamir Khan’s production house.
