Actress Samiksha Bhatnagar has opened up about her on-set experience with the Deol brothers — Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol — during the making of the comedy-drama Poster Boys, describing two contrasting but equally warm personalities that made her debut experience memorable.

Sunny Deol: Quiet but Humble

Bhatnagar, best known for her role in the television series Anupamaa, shared that her screen time with Sunny Deol was limited, given the nature of her character's arc. 'I have actually worked less with Sunny Deol and more with Bobby Deol because most of my scenes were with Bobby. Sunny Deol is very shy and does not talk much, but he is extremely humble,' she said.

Despite fewer shared scenes, Bhatnagar spoke of the Gadar actor with evident respect, noting that his reserved nature came paired with a genuine warmth toward co-stars.

Bobby Deol Made Her Feel Like a Veteran

It was her dynamic with Bobby Deol, however, that she described as a particular highlight. In the film, Bhatnagar played Surajmukhi Sharma, the sharp and devoted wife of Bobby's character Vinay Sharma — a pairing that required natural on-screen chemistry.

'With Bobby Deol, I never felt that I was working with him for the first time. That gave me a lot of confidence, and I enjoyed the experience immensely,' she said. The comfort extended beyond the camera as well. 'All my interactions with him were very good. On screen, we were very friendly, and off screen also, we shared a very comfortable equation,' she added.

Shreyas Talpade's Inclusive Set Culture

Bhatnagar also praised Shreyas Talpade, who wrote, co-produced, and directed Poster Boys — marking his directorial debut. She noted that Talpade made a conscious effort to ensure newer cast members never felt out of place. 'Even Shreyas sir had this wonderful quality of never making newcomers feel that they were new on the set. We all worked together with a lot of warmth and affection. Overall, my experience with them was very good,' she said.

About Poster Boys

Poster Boys featured Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, and Shreyas Talpade in lead roles, alongside Sonali Kulkarni, Samiksha Bhatnagar, and Tripti Dimri. The film marked Talpade's transition from actor to filmmaker, and was widely noted for its ensemble camaraderie both on and off screen.

Bhatnagar's account offers a candid window into the interpersonal dynamics that shaped one of Bollywood's more warmly received comedy outings — and suggests that the film's easy chemistry was as much a product of the set environment as the script.
