In
his
recent
tete-a-tete
with
a
leading
daily,
when
actor
Abhay
Deol
was
asked
if
he
feels
he
got
his
due
recognition
from
film
industry,
he
said
that
he
doesn't
feel
the
lack
of
recognition,
but
he
feels
that
he
didn't
invest
much
in
PR
machinery,
otherwise
he
would
have
been
the
news
all
the
time.
Abhay
said
that
even
today,
people
want
to
interview
him
and
tell
him
that
they
love
his
work,
and
owing
to
the
same
reason,
he
doesn't
feel
the
lack
of
recognition.
"I
don't
feel
the
lack
of
recognition
at
all.
If
there
is
any
lack
of,
it's
the
lack
of
investing
in
a
PR
machinery
to
keep
me
in
the
news
all
the
time,
and
project
a
star
image,
which
I
was
never
interested
in.
So
I
do
lack
that
star
image,
which
I
myself
have
to
feed.
Because
all
the
stars
have
a
PR
machinery
behind
them
that
feeds
into
that
narrative.
I
don't
have
that,
and
that's
by
choice," said
the
Zindagi
Na
Milegi
Dobara
actor.
Abhay
further
added
that
it's
sad
that
in
India,
one
just
has
to
constantly
feed
the
beast
and
stay
in
the
news.
Explaining
his
point,
he
asserted,
"We've
created
a
system
where,
unless
I
see
you
see
you
every
other
day
endorsing
10
brands,
you're
not
recognised.
What
happened
to
just
the
fact
that
people
love
you
and
say
that
they
do,
and
that
journalists
want
to
speak
to
you
and
papers
are
interested
in
what
you
have
to
say?"
