Bobby Deol Gets Emotional Remembering Dharam Ji On Shekhar Tonite: "Main Dharmendra Ka Beta Hoon"

The return of Shekhar Suman to the world of long-form conversations has already struck an emotional chord with audiences. After a phenomenal premiere episode featuring Nitin Gadkari, Shekhar Tonite continues its heartfelt journey with an episode that is deeply personal, emotional, and unforgettable.

The second episode welcomes Bobby Deol - an actor audiences have celebrated not just for his remarkable comeback after Animal, but also for the quiet sincerity he carries within him. While fans have admired his powerful screen presence over the years, this episode reveals a far more vulnerable side of the actor as he speaks about the irreplaceable void left behind by his father, the legendary Dharmendra.

In one of the most moving moments of the episode, Bobby Deol opens his heart while remembering his father and says, "...mere liye mere papa ek aise insaan the jinhe puri duniya itna pyaar karti thi. Uska ehsaas rehta tha lekin jab woh chale gaye, itna dukh, itna pain jo humein hi nahi, meri family ko hi nahi, balki puri duniya ko hua. Jahan main jata hu, sab ko itna hua... that's what papa was. Papa was special. Unke jaisa koi ban bhi nahi sakta, koi aa bhi nahi sakta."

The emotion in the room deepens further when Shekhar Suman gently asks him about the one thing he will always remember about Dharam ji. Struggling to hold back his emotions, Bobby replies, "Aisi ek cheez toh ho hi nahi sakti na ki insaan me ho. Unki har ek cheez itni pyaari thi. Unka gussa bhi pyaar tha."

Amid the emotional honesty, the episode also carries moments of warmth and simplicity that make it even more special. When Shekhar Suman jokingly asks whether he has come to the show as Vijay Singh Deol, Bobby Deol, Baba Deol, or the internet's beloved "Lord Bobby," the actor responds with a line that beautifully captures his identity beyond fame and stardom: "Main Dharmendra ka beta hoon."

Created by Adhyayan Suman and produced by Dharmesh Sangani, Shekhar Tonite is emerging as more than just a celebrity talk show. It is becoming a space where stories feel personal, memories feel lived, and conversations leave an emotional impact long after the episode ends.

After an overwhelming response to its premiere, Shekhar Tonite continues every Friday at 6 PM on YouTube. The much-awaited second episode featuring Bobby Deol streams on 22nd May 2026.
