Released: November 19, 1999 Director: Sunny Deol Cast: Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Urmila Matondkar Music: Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy (lyrics by Anand Bakshi) Introduction: A Brothers’ Tale In the late 1990s, the Deol family—Dharmendra, Sunny, and Bobby—was a Bollywood dynasty known for on-screen action and off-screen loyalty. Dillagi (translation: Mischief or Playfulness ) was special: it marked Sunny Deol’s directorial debut and was intended as a launchpad for younger brother Bobby Deol as a romantic lead, while Sunny played the quintessential angry-young-man elder brother.
Dillagi is a flawed, heartfelt family drama that failed to impress critics upon release but has survived as a nostalgic time capsule and a fan favorite among Deol loyalists. Its music remains its strongest legacy. dillagi movie reviews and ratings
