Though the Deols (Dharmendra, Sunny and Bobby) have not been in circulation off late, there must be something about them that continue to inspire filmmakers. And, when served as a family pack with emotions and high drama along with, they never fail to enthrall and amuse the audience. The success of <em>Yamla Pagla Deewana</em> (YPD) has proved that the three are as good as a unit. And if whispers in trade circles are to be believed, this year will see the father-sons combo featuring in not one but at least four films.

Sangeeth Sivan’s Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 is an out-and-out escapist fare with no bearing to real life. Says Dharam<em>ji</em>, “It’s a completely mad film. Sunny, Bobby and I had great fun shooting it in London. We had to make sure that the sequel went ahead of the first film. The characters are the same. But the plot is completely different.” During the three months that the Deols shot for <em>Yamla Pagla Deewana 2</em> in London there were four birthday celebrations.
