Thirty
five
years
and
severa
blockbuster
later,
actor
Sunny
Deol
says
his
process
of
working
in
a
film
is
purely
'instinctive' where
he
is
more
interested
in
listening
to
the
storyteller
than
reading
scripts.
For
Sunny,
it
is
a
matter
of
choice
that
he
avoids
reading
scripts
as
he
believes
he
might
look
at
them
with
a
certain
mindset
and
hence
prefers
to
hear
them
straight
from
the
writers.
"I
am
a
very
instinctive
person.
I
hear
an
idea,
a
thought
and
if
it
is
good
and
I
like
it,
I
just
jump
for
it.
I
don't
go
into
the
detailing
of
it.
Right
now,
you
need
to
do
that
but
back
then
film-making
was
different.
I
never
read
scripts," Sunny
told
PTI.
"I
just
hear
the
idea
from
the
director
and
go
for
it.
I
have
always
interacted
with
the
story
writer
and
heard
the
subject
because
that's
what
is
going
to
eventually
come
over
on
screen,"
he
adds.
Since
his
debut
in
1983
with
"Betaab",
Sunny
has
featured
in
some
strong
content
driven
films
like
"Ghayal",
"Damini",
"Darr"
and
"Gaddar
Ek
Prem
Katha",
among
others.
A
process
of
not
reading
scripts
can
be
considered
risky
but
Sunny
still
goes
by
his
instincts
while
giving
nod
to
a
film.
"One
never
takes
it
as
gamble.
I
do
it
because
I
love
it
and
I'm
enjoying
the
story.
Obviously
sometimes
in
the
journey
you
realise
the
production,
the
director,
writer,
or
some
things
are
going
here
and
there
but
you
don't
disown
it.
You
don't
run
away
because
it's
everyone's
baby,"
he
says.
The
actor
is
seen
in
Bhaiaji
Superhit,
which
also
features
Priety
Zinta
and
Arshad
Warsi.
The
film
is
set
in
Sunny's
familiar
territory,
action-comedy,
but
the
actor
says
it
does
not
mean
he
goes
to
the
sets
thinking
it
will
be
a
cakewalk.
"I
don't
think
I
have
ever
worked
with
the
attitude
that
'This
is
easy
I
can
do
it.' Hats
off
to
those
who
say
and
do
it.
For
me,
I
need
to
enjoy
it.
You
can't
be
nervous
while
performing
a
scene
because
then
you
wouldn't
be
able
to,"
he
says.
The
62-year-old
actor,
however,
is
aware
that
to
stay
relevant,
he
has
to
pick
up
roles
which
move
according
to
times.
"I
cannot
be
a
teenager
in
films.
You
move
accordingly
and
your
experience
makes
you
do
certain
subjects
which
you
wouldn't
have
done
when
you
were
younger.
As
the
time
goes,
you
interact
and
become
more
aware
of
certain
things.
"It'll
be
stupid
if
I
still
want
to
play
a
college
boy.
Besides
that
nobody
would
want
to
make
it
also.
It's
only
when
the
filmmakers
know
that
this
actor
can
pull
it
off,
is
when
they
approach
you,"
he
adds.
Directed
by
Neerraj
Pathak
and
produced
by
Chirag
Dhariwal,
"Bhaiaji
Superhit"
releases
on
Friday.
