Shah Rukh 'making actors commodity', Salman turning them into bodybuilders: Sunny Deol on Koffee With Karan 8

Sunny Deol on Koffee With Karan 8: Read on to find out what the Gadar star said about Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar

Sunny Deol and his younger brother Bobby Deol were the guests on the second episode of Koffee With Karan season 8. The star brothers were welcomed on the show by host Karan Johar, who quizzed them about the ups and downs of their careers, as well as their relationship with other actors in the film fraternity.

During the infamous rapid-fire round, the actors were each asked to name things they liked or hated about certain stars. Both brothers very politely put forth their opinions, giving the audience a better insight into their relationship with some members of the film fraternity.

Sunny Deol on Shah Rukh Khan

Sunny Deol, who famously had a fallout with Shah Rukh Khan many years ago, was asked to mention one good thing and one bad thing about the Bollywood Badshah. "He is very hardworking," Sunny emphasized. "What I don't like about him is, making actors a commodity (sic),' he added with a laugh, while Karan Johar reacted, "Oh god! Okay."

Sunny was kinder towards Salman Khan. "I think he is a very good human being, but he is making everyone into a bodybuilder. He wants everybody to be a bodybuilder," Sunny said with a laugh.

Sunny Deol on Akshay Kumar

For Akshay Kumar, Sunny listed his punctuality as a good quality. "But what I don't like is that he is doing too many films," he added. 

Incidentally, Sunny's latest hit, Gadar 2, clashed with Akhay's film OMG 2 at the box office earlier this year. During their conversation, Karan Johar brought up the clash and asked Sunny Deol if he had spoken to Akshay Kumar about this. Sunny replied that he did indeed request Akshay not to let it happen if he had the power to prevent it. However, Akshay had explained that it's the decision of the studio, and two films can be released simultaneously.

"It's a very emotional thing if you ask me, frankly, because I thought my film was releasing, and I haven't had a success for donkey's years, and I didn't want anybody else's to come along with it. Well, but you can't stop anybody. So obviously, it does hurt you," Sunny elaborated.

During the rapid fire, Karan also asked Sunny to complete the sentence: "Women find Sunny Deol hot because..." 

"I'm shy," Sunny responded.
