I have moved away from what my image used to be. The web shows I acted in were very helpful in this regard. In between when I did not have any work, I took acting classes. I asked myself: why did my career have a good start? That\u2019s because people saw something in me. However, because of my wrong choices, my career suffered. I worked on regaining faith in myself as well as being disciplined. If you are disciplined, you can put more effort into your work without feeling the pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>     \u2018One tends to get typecast\u2019<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cIn this industry, one tends to get typecast. It is tough to break that mould. OTT gave me that chance to come out of it. Playing an antagonist character and getting appreciation is something I had not imagined. However, every antagonist has to be different \u2014 be it my character in Aashram or Animal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bobby made his acting debut as a lead in the 1995 romantic film Barsaat. He went on to star in Soldier, Badal, Gupt, Race 3, Jhoom Barabar Jhoom and Ab Tumhare Hawale Watan Saathiyo, among other films.<\/p>\n<p>In Bandar, Bobby leads the ensemble cast alongside actors Sanya Malhotra, Saba Azad, and Sapna Pabbi. The film&#8217;s release date is yet to be announced. Meanwhile, The Ba***ds of Bollywood will release on Netflix on September 18.<\/p>\n<p>         <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/story_trending@2x.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"\/>            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\" class=\"breadcrumbclick\" data-vars-event-label=\"Home_clicked\" data-vars-event-action=\"\/\" data-vars-event-cta=\"News\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">News<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/entertainment\" class=\"breadcrumbclick\" data-vars-event-label=\"Entertainment_clicked\" data-vars-event-action=\"\/entertainment\" data-vars-event-cta=\"Entertainment\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Entertainment<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/entertainment\/bollywood\" class=\"breadcrumbclick\" data-vars-event-label=\"Bollywood_clicked\" data-vars-event-action=\"\/entertainment\/bollywood\" data-vars-event-cta=\"Bollywood\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bollywood<\/a> \/ Bobby Deol says his acting career suffered due to wrong choices: \u2018When I did not have any work I took acting classes\u2019   <\/p>\n<p> See Less <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Updated on: Sept 15, 2025 06:13 am IST Bobby Deol saw a resurgence in his career after the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":64677,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[263],"tags":[5665,15821,3771,15822,18,117,19,17,327,6960],"class_list":{"0":"post-64676","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-animal","9":"tag-anurag-kashyap","10":"tag-aryan-khan","11":"tag-bobby-deol","12":"tag-eire","13":"tag-entertainment","14":"tag-ie","15":"tag-ireland","16":"tag-movies","17":"tag-the-bads-of-bollywood"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64676","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64676"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64676\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64677"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64676"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64676"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64676"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
