Actor Sunny Deol says he was “hurt” when a bank published a property auction notice over his alleged non-payment of Rs 55.99 crore loan as it was a personal matter of their family’s “hard earned money” made public. Bank of Baroda (BoB) had published a notice on the e-auction of Sunny’s bungalow in Mumbai’s Juhu after the actor reportedly failed to repay a Rs 56 crore loan. A day later, BoB withdrew the notice citing “technical reasons”.

In an interview with Zoom, Sunny was asked what he felt when the notice was published. The actor, who is currently enjoying the success of Gadar 2, said it’s natural for any business to face losses and there are modes of recovery in such circumstances.

Sunny said despite it being a normal course of business and recovery, he felt some people “enjoy” a spectacle of someone’s personal life and the recent case was no different. The actor assured his fans, who he said were also hurt, that everything was well.

“I don’t react to things because I know what I have, what I have to do, what the problem was and I sorted it out. But what hurts is that they printed the notice in the newspaper. I said, ‘What are they getting out of it? That’s my issue and what is wrong with it.’ A human being does business, goes into losses and then when the losses cannot be taken care of, you have your property which you give away and you complete your losses off. It’s a normal format of life and it’s my and my dad’s hard earned money.

“So why should it be made into some kind of a talk anyway? But somehow people like enjoying it… I have seen this so many times that I tell myself, ‘Carry on.’ It doesn’t bother me, because I know what I am, I know what it is. But you are hurting my fans who say, ‘Why are they doing this?’ but I tell them, ‘Don’t worry, sab bhadiya hain,'” he said.

As per the earlier sale notice issued Sunday, the bank was to auction Sunny Villa, located at Gandhi Gram Road, to recover Rs 55.99 crore the actor owes the lender along with interest and cost from December 26 last year minus the recovery of the amount that has been made.

The corrigendum (an error to be corrected) comes a day after the BoB issued the e-auction notice. “Sale Notice in respect of Mr Ajay Sing Deol alias Mr Sunny Deol Stands Withdrawn due to Technical Reasons…” it read.
