Bobby Deol Steals the Show in Aryan Khan’s ‘The Ba*ds of Bollywood’ and Gears Up for Major Releases

Bobby Deol is proving once again that he’s not just back—he’s unstoppable. With his powerhouse performance in ‘The Ba*ds of Bollywood’, Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, Bobby has cemented his place in the evolving landscape of Indian entertainment. The actor, who plays the enigmatic Bollywood superstar Ajay Talvar, has captivated both critics and audiences alike with a performance that’s been described as “stunning” and “boldly magnetic.”
A Breakout Role in Aryan Khan’s Debut Series
Premiering on September 18, The Bads of Bollywood* is an edgy web series that combines biting satire, raw drama, and an insider’s look at the eccentricities of the Hindi film industry. The show marks Aryan Khan’s much-anticipated entry as a director, and early reactions suggest it’s a resounding success.
As per the ETimes review, the series is “not-so-sharp but daringly self-aware…less of a scathing satire and more of an edgy, meta love letter to the film industry.” The storyline explores a “forbidden love story between an outsider and a nepo kid,” culminating in an “unhinged, glorious climax” that truly justifies its audacious title.
At the center of it all is Bobby Deol, whose layered portrayal of Ajay Talvar—part legend, part cautionary tale—adds emotional weight and star power to the series. His performance has become one of the key talking points, further fueling the show’s viral popularity across streaming platforms and social media.
Viral Fun: The Deol Brothers Turn Chickens in Quirky Ad
Beyond serious roles and intense performances, Bobby is also having fun with his public persona. He recently starred alongside his brother Abhay Deol in a wildly quirky, AI-generated animated advertisement where the duo appear as—you guessed it—chickens. The ad has since gone viral, thanks to its absurd humor and a surprise cameo by their elder brother Sunny Deol, adding a nostalgic yet innovative twist for fans.
This lighthearted campaign showcases Bobby’s ability to embrace unconventional roles and content, highlighting his ongoing versatility and relevance in an ever-changing industry.
What’s Next for Bobby Deol?
The momentum doesn’t stop here. Bobby is already set to appear in ‘Bandar’, a highly anticipated thriller directed by the ever-bold Anurag Kashyap. The film promises a gritty, psychological edge and continues Bobby’s recent streak of dark, complex characters.
Adding to the excitement, Bobby has also been cast in ‘Alpha’, a mega project in the expanding YRF Spy Universe, where he’ll share the screen with Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh. As the spy franchise continues to grow, Bobby’s inclusion signals his rising stock in the action-thriller genre.
Final Thoughts
From stealing scenes in The Bads of Bollywood* to turning into a viral chicken for a laugh—and with high-profile films on the horizon—Bobby Deol’s career renaissance is showing no signs of slowing down. Whether on screen, behind the scenes, or in the realm of experimental advertising, Bobby continues to prove why he’s one of the most exciting, unpredictable talents in the industry today.
