His son, Karan Deol, will also be in the movie.
Sunny says he does not feel old at all.
He says he still feels like the same young hero he always was.
He will keep playing hero roles until he feels old inside.
Sunny's father, Dharmendra, was also a famous actor and stopped playing hero roles as he got older.
