Meanwhile, on the work front, Bobby Deol was recently seen in Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, The Ba***ds of Bollywood. The show stars him as superstar Ajay Talwar, who eyes a big launch for his daughter Karishma Talwar (Sahher) and ruins Aasman’s (Lakshya) career in the process. The series features several cameos and is filled with satirical digs at the entertainment industry.
Meanwhile, Bobby is also the lead of Anurag Kashyap's film Bandar which was recently premiered at TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival). He plays the role of an ageing television star, whose life changes overnight when he is accused of rape by his ex-girlfriend after he cuts off all ties with her. “The story is of a has-been. The actor had to be my age as my generation has not transitioned well to the social media age. Bobby understands what failure means. He has seen his career fade away and then he found his way back,” told Kashayp in an interview with mid-day.
Through Bandar, the director has explored the grey areas of MeToo accusations, the fine line between right and wrong, and questioned the treatment of inmates in Indian prisons.
