The actor’s husky voice and dreamy eyes are enough to make fans go weak at their knees. Debuting in 1983 at the age of 26 with Betaab, the actor is loved by audiences even today. While Sunny Deol started out doing romantic films in the industry, later he established himself as a bona fide action hero. With towering screen presence and barrel-chested physique, one could only imagine the pain of the wound that might be meted out by his muscular hands.

This was the highest-grosser of the year and bagged nominations for several categories in the Filmfare Awards. Border Based on the 1971 India-Pakistan battle at Longewala, this JP Dutta directorial was a multi-starrer affair, casting some of the finest actors of 1997. Sunny Deol essayed the character of the Army chief deftly heading the battalion in crisis, and was simply phenomenal. Gadar: Ek Prem Katha A love story set around India’s Partition, Anil Sharma’s 2001 directorial is simply a complete package of romance, action, drama, dance, and lots and lots of Sunny Deol.
