Post a heartening response from the audience to Yamla Pagla Deewana, Sunny Deol is keen on a fresh start in B-Town with action flicks

With his latest outing in B-Town Yamla Pagla Deewana, Sunny Deol is happy that he finally got it right. His last couple of movies (Right Yaa Wrong, Fox, Heroes) proved to be duds.

Dharmendra's son is now looking at a fresh innings in tinsel town. Even though YPD is a comic caper, he is keen to concentrate on action flicks - what he is known for.

"I had veered away from doing what I was best at. But I have realised that doing movies like Ghayal is what I am best suited for."

He states that YPD's response, especially in the north has been extremely heartening. "I am being called the Rajnikant of the North.

People have been kind to us. It is heartening. It is so important to have a franchise in film world and with YPD we have achieved it.

There is already talk of having a sequel. Acting with my father and brother has proved lucky for me."

The actor is currently shooting for a T Series romcom with Kangna Ranaut and will also begun work on Chandraprakash Dwivedi's 80 Ghat.

"I am looking at doing an actioner now. That's what I am waiting for again."

He will also take a decision on his movie The Man with Shilpa Shetty that is lying in the cans for over two years. "I know I have to take a call on it either ways. In the next few days, I will give a thought to it."
