In an interview with Mashable India, Bobby Deol spoke about his 2016 stint with DJing where he played Gupt songs on a loop at a New Delhi nightclub. After that, reportedly the crowd demanded a refund and the actor was trolled online. Bobby said that he is not a DJ and he was only invited by the nightclub as actors are often invited to places.
He said, "I don't know what happened. I don't know what was it that made...all of it started after one month." Talking about his viral photo, he said that the event people took him to the DJ console and made him wear the headphones.
The actor said that he didn't anticipate the trolling that followed. "I didn't know people would troll me", he added. Bobby further said that the experience made him a stronger human being.
In 2021, Bobby once again appeared at a nightclub in what was touted as India’s ‘biggest’ Diwali party.
In the same conversation, Bobby spoke about his debut film Barsaat. He revealed that it was originally supposed to be directed by Shekhar Kapur with whom he even shot for over 20 days. But Shekhar wanted to put it on hold as he was offered to make Bandit Queen from Hollywood.
His father and the film's producer, Dharmendra, asked Shekhar to leave. Bobby said, "It was a big moment for him. So, he wanted to delay my film and complete his film."
He added, "But, for papa, my film was very important. So, he told Shekhar, ‘Tu jaa, do what you want to do. For me, my son is special and for you, Hollywood is special", he added. Barsaat was eventually directed by Rajkumar Santoshi and it turned out to be a success.
