In the macho triumvirate, he is the taciturn Deol. While father Dharmendra and brother Bobby are 'people's people', Sunny Deol is retiring. "Your work should speak for you. The day you have to speak about your work, it means things are bad," Sunny explains.

Daddy dearest
While film-maker Sooraj Barjatya glorifies the big Indian joint family in his films, Sunny actually lives and believes in one. "It's our way of life," he asserts. The traditionalist, who maintains that 'a father is a father' reveals, "Whilst shooting for 'Apne' we had to let go of 'dad', or else it would've been difficult to do the film. Once the shot was over, I'd move away and everything would be the same." The staunch son adds, "We share a similar outlook-not to hurt anybody and live with honesty."

Hello brother
Sunny, who's known to have given his career a 'pause' so that brother Bobby's could pick up, justifies, "I did it because I wanted to do. I've seen Bobby grow. He's like a son to me," adding "Often when I'm away on location for days, Bobby just flies down to be with me."

Macho mush
Sunny has no qualms admitting that the Deols are a sentimental bunch. "We are mirror-like. Whether we are hurt or happy- it reflects on our faces. I'm not ashamed of being emotional."

Band of boys
Sunny, who is keen that his sons Rocky (16) and Rajvir (12) complete their education, reveals that his relationship with them is similar to his with his father. "A little distance will always remain. It was the fear of my dad that kept me on the discipline track or I could have drifted," says Sunny who confesses being 'very fond' of Bobby's sons (Aryaman and Dharam) who address him as 'Tayaji'.

My woman
Sunny, getting expressive, also shares the influence of wife Pooja in his life, "She has brought in harmony and of course my sons. The mother's
upbringing is very important. Pooja is a good
mother. She has handled everything, including my home, very well."
A quality he admires in a woman? "It's having the honesty to accept your shortcomings, forgiving and forgetting. That deepens bonds. Everybody has anger and frustration inside. How a woman holds the family together-that's her test!"
