In an interview with the Deccan Chronicle, Sunny Deol had revealed why the Deol men are generally in the limelight, while the women in the family (wife Pooja Deol, sisters, Ajeita and Vijeta, mother Prakash Deol and even Bobby’s wife Tanya Deol) have not been a part of it. Revealing if this is a deliberate decision, Sunny had shared, "That’s not true. Neither my mother nor my wife was forced to stay away from the limelight. My wife is her own person. She has always had the liberty to make her own decisions. To not make public appearances is her own call. Like I said, neither my father nor I have forced the women in our family to follow our rules."
