Abhay Deol: Hollywood has been lacking right representation for a long time
Hindustan TimesAs Abhay Deol navigates the larger than life terrain of Hollywood, the actor is glad that the world of West is working hard to fill the void of lack of right representation, and reflecting the world as it is. There needs to be right representation in Hollywood, and they’ve been lacking for a long time,” shares Deol, who has embarked upon a journey in the West with his latest film, Spin. Here Deol, who made his debut in Bollywood with Socha Na Tha in 2005, doesn’t mean to make ethnicity the plotline to make a point as “making a statement without making it about ethnic identity is important”. We make a statement by making a family Indian American, but not making it about ethnic identity,” reveals the actor, who has also featured in films such as Dev.D and Manorama Six Feet Under.
