Sunny Deol’s younger son Rajveer Deol says he is glad that he was asked to audition for his debut movie, unlike his elder brother Karan Deol, who was launched by Sunny himself. Rajveer, who is all set to make his acting debut with the coming-of-age romantic film Dono, spoke about his big Bollywood break in an interview with News18. The film, which also marks the acting debut of actor Poonam Dhillon's daughter Paloma Thakeria, will be released on October 5.

Rajveer on not being launched by Deol family
He told News18, “I was prepping up so there was no discussion that my family was going to launch me. After Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas was released, I saw him going through his (Karan Deol) all-time low. So my biggest challenge is having a fear of not earning it on your own and making it on your own. So when Dono happened, I am glad that they asked me to audition as I don’t want to feel that I am not worth it."
On Karan Deol's film debut
When asked if his elder brother offered him any advice before Dono, Rajveer Deol said, “We are good pals and we talk telepathically rather than having a conversation (laughs). He told me that I was lucky to be launched outside the family because he saw the difficulty of being launched by the family. He did not have the freedom to choose the character he wanted to play or have a perspective as there are many seniors like my father, who were a part of Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas, so when these people are involved, it puts a chain on an actor to have freedom to explore. He was really happy that I was doing Dono which was not our production."
