Abhay Deol is one of the best in the Bollywood film industry. He has worked with many famous directors like Anurag Kashyap, Zoya Akhtar and Dev D is the most noted film of his career.
Now, the actor has revealed that he hates fame. He says that after the release of Dev D, he couldn’t get out of the influence of the character and the fame it gave him. He also says that he hated fame when he was young.
I didn’t like it because the fame erodes the privacy. I literally hate fame and media. There has been a lot of news about my family. Many people used to ask me – is it true? Is this true? This would have made me very angry. Father works in films and uncle is a big star. I know a lot of people who were around family to get benefits and they weren’t friends.
Abhay Deol went on to talk about the impact his Dev D role had on him. “One year I did what Dev D did in the movie. I was little better than Dev. Nothing has been walked on the street in torn clothes. But I drank myself into unconsciousness. It continued day after day, added Abhay.
