Bobby Deol (born 27 January 1967)[1] is an Indian actor who works in Bollywood.[2][3] A member of the Deol family, he is the younger son of actor Dharmendra. He has won a Filmfare Award in 1996.
After appearing as a child artist in Dharam Veer (1977), Deol had his first lead role in the blockbuster romance Barsaat (1995) that won him the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut. He established himself as a lead with the top-grossing films Gupt (1997), Soldier (1998), Badal (2000), Bichhoo (2000), Ajnabee (2001), and Humraaz (2002).

He reinforced his critical success with acclaimed performances in digital ventures Class of '83 (2020) and Aashram (2020–present).
