Actor Sunny Deol joined BJP on Tuesday in presence of Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Railway Minister Piyush Goyal, days after he met BJP president Amit Shah at Pune airport. "The way my father (film star Dharmendra) was attached with Atalji, today I have come to join Modiji. Whatever I can do for this family (BJP), I will do it... I won't talk, I will show you through my work," Deol said while addressing the media at the Bharatiya Janata Party office.

The party is likely to field Deol, who has acted in films such as Ghayal and Damini, from either Gurdaspur or Chandigarh in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, according to sources. Gurdaspur Lok Sabha seat in Punjab was represented by the late Vinod Khanna from BJP.
