Actor Abhay Deol is one of the B-town celebrities who never shied away from drawing attention to such topics that have been left unsaid or ignored by many Bollywood biggies. Abhay is known for his low-profile attitude but now the actor has come forward and raised a voice against lobbying in the Hindi film industry.

In an Instagram post, Abhay shared a still from his movie and wrote, "Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, released in 2011. Need to chant this title to myself everyday nowadays! Also a great watch when anxious or stressed. I would like to mention that almost all the award functions demoted me and Farhan from main leads, and nominated us as `supporting actors`. Hrithik and Katrina were nominated as `actors in a leading role`. So by the industry's own logic, this was a film about a man and a woman falling in love, with the man supported by his friends for whatever decisions he takes. There are many covert and overt ways in which people in the industry lobby against you. In this case it was shamelessly overt. I of course boycotted the awards but Farhan was ok with it. #familyfareawards Very creative artwork @kalakkii". Check out the post here-

From calling out "woke Indian celebrities", to questioning their decisions of endorsing fairness products, Abhay Deol has spoken up and out. Even now Abhay's post comes in the wake of Sushant Singh Rajput's death, where has raised his opinion against lobbying in Bollywood and roasted the award shows. Just like Abhay, many other Bollywood celebs like Dabangg director Abhinav Kashyap, Raveena Tandon, and Vivek Oberoi, singer Sonu Nigam and others also came forward and spoke about the industry bias behaviour.

According to the inside reports, Bollywood's top production houses had boycotted Sushant Singh Rajput despite the success of his 2019 film Chhichhore and others and this became the main reason behind the actor's suicidal act! For now, police are still investigating the case and we have to wait for their side of theory.
