Bobby Deol says he doesn't like unnecessary media attention, unlike most other actors.

"I know a lot of actors use media just to garner publicity. I keep away from all this. It's unfortunate, " Bobby told his friend, actress Preity Zinta, during a chat on UTV Stars' show "Up, Close and Personal with PZ".

Bobby and his elder brother, Sunny, are known to keep their distance from the media.

They rarely give interviews, but their father, veteran star Dharmendra, has been mixing well with mediapersons of late thanks to his daughter, Esha Deol's comeback film "Tell Me O Kkhuda".

The film, directed by Hema Malini, will release Thursday.
