\"Bobby Bobby Deol<\/a> who is winning hearts at the moment with his role in ‘The Ba***ds Of Bollywood’. The actor is currently in his 2.0 version and second phase of his career after experiencing a dull time. He is back and how – with projects like ‘Aashram’, ‘Animal’, and now this Aryan Khan<\/a> directed series amidst more. While he may look like a tough guy on screen, clearly, Bobby Deol is quite vulnerable. That side of him is evident when he speaks about his family. In a recent interview, Bobby has opened up on his parents, his siblings and revealed he wanted a daughter and wanted to give her his mother’s name. He revealed on Raj Shamani’s podcast, \u201cWhen I got married, I wanted to have four kids\u2026 and I wanted to name them exactly the same names as my siblings because we have very unisex pet names. My brother is Sunny\u2014you could be a boy or a girl. My eldest sister is Laali; she could be a boy or a girl. Then Anu and Bobby. All unisex names.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reflecting on his younger self, Bobby laughed, \u201cThat was when I was growing up. I used to think of these things. Then when my wife and me were having our first child, I only looked for girl names.\u201d He admitted that he had always wanted a daughter, inspired by the bond his sisters shared with their parents.The actor fondly recalled, \u201cI just wanted to have a daughter. If I go a little back\u2026 my second sister, who is two years older than me, she got married and before that she said, \u2018If I have a daughter, I\u2019ll name her Nicky.\u2019 That\u2019s my mom\u2026 So I said, \u2018No, I\u2019m going to name my daughter Nicky.\u2019\u201dThis playful disagreement with his sister Anu turned emotional, but eventually, she did go on to name her daughter Nicky\u2014someone Bobby now considers especially dear. Later, when he and his wife were expecting their first child, Nicky teased him for not sticking to his claim. Bobby joked that if he couldn\u2019t have a daughter of his own, he would adopt her.Recalling the birth of his first son, Bobby shared, \u201cI had my first son, and it was the day after Gadar released. It was a huge moment for me and my brother, around 24 years back. There was just so much happiness in the house\u2026 The day my son was born, I felt this connection to another level.\u201dWhen it came to naming his children, Bobby admitted he had initially wanted to call one of them Dharam, after his legendary father, Dharmendra<\/a>. He explained, \u201cIt just had this beautiful emotion, sound, love\u2014it just sounded that way. They said to me, \u2018You can\u2019t. You have to name him something else.\u2019 I said, \u2018Who calls papa by his name?\u2019 Then I found another name.\u201dEventually, Bobby named his firstborn Aryaman. His second son, however, did carry forward the legacy, he was named Dharam. With a smile, Bobby added that Dharam inherited the same warmth and affection that defines his grandfather.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bobby Deol who is winning hearts at the moment with his role in ‘The Ba***ds Of Bollywood’.
