The actor looked dapper in an ethnic, blue attire as he shot an arrow to symbolically burn the effigy. The crowd erupted in cheers and whistles. His presence drew massive crowds, with lakhs of people gathering at the iconic event. Have a look here:
Previously, in a video shared with organisers, Bobby expressed his excitement about being part of the annual tradition. In his trademark baritone, he said, “Dilli ki Ramlila mein iss baar mai aa raha hai… Toh milte hain Dussehra par.”
Arjun Kumar, president of the Luv Kush Ramlila Committee, previously said Bobby’s involvement will add star power to the festivities. “Bobby Deol’s participation is expected to make this Dussehra even more spectacular and memorable,” he said.
A tradition of grandeur
The Luv Kush Ramlila at Red Fort is among the most iconic in the country, blending mythology with modern spectacle and drawing audiences from across Delhi and beyond. With Bobby Deol as the star guest this year, organisers believe the symbolic slaying of Ravana carried an added dose of cinematic flair.
Meanwhile, Bobby Deol is currently enjoying the success of his recently released web series, The Ba***ds of Bollywood, which premiered on the OTT giant Netflix. Helmed by Aryan Khan, the show also featured celebs like Lakshya, Raghav Juyal, Sahher Bambba, Mona Singh, and Manoj Pahwa in significant roles. And now, after wrapping up the promotions of the show, the actor has restarted the shooting of his next untitled project in the beautiful valley of Ladakh with co-actress Fatima Sana Shaikh.
Bobby will also be seen in the spy-thriller film Alpha, along with Alia Bhatt and Sharvari. Helmed by Shiv Rawail, the film is backed by Yash Raj Films and will be released on Christmas this year.
