Few can boast of a fulfilling six-decade career on the big screen. Yet, Dharmendra insists his romance with the camera is far from over. If anything, he believes his most cherished film has yet to come. The veteran is looking forward to bringing three generations of the Deol family — sons Sunny and Bobby, grandson Karan Deol, and himself — on screen for the first time with Apne 2.

"I am not scared about shooting [in the prevailing scenario]. We will take the necessary precautions; we should be brave, not foolish. The Deols are known for their family entertainers, and I am sure this film will make everyone laugh next Diwali," begins Dharmendra, who will kick off the shoot by mid-2021. Director Anil Sharma, who will helm the Deepak Mukut-backed drama, adds, "Dharmendra often says, 'Camera meri mehbooba hai'. He can't stay away from it for too long."
