Sunny Deol was also asked about Anju, an Indian, who reportedly tied the knot with her Pakistani Facebook friend Nasrullah.

Sunny Deol on cross-border love stories

“Dekhiye aise hota nahi hai. Aaj kal technology aisi hai ki kahi kisi ko dekh lete hain aur aps ke through ek doosre se mil lete hain. Toh yeh bahut cheesein available hain jinse log mil jatae hain. Pehle toh bichole hote the aur aaj kal toh sab technology use karte hain… obviously pyaar jab ho jata hai tab woh door toh nahi rehna chahenge, nazdeek rehna chahenge. Toh yeh sab cheesein hoti rahengi, yeh ek way of life hai, iss par hume zyada gaur nahi dena chahiye, isse criticise nahi karna chahiye because unki apni ek zindagi hai. Unhe jeene do, sahi hai ya galat hai, woh unhe pata hai (I don’t think so, today technology is there and people meet on apps. Once they fall in love, they wish to meet and live together. We should not slam them or pay attention to such things as it is their life. We should let them live, whether it is right or wrong is their personal matter).”

When asked if he follows news about the recent cross-border love stories, Sunny said, “It (news) has become business, it is not actual news or anything. It is more of commodity, and people are consuming it. And we are giving it to them. That is what the reality is actually as a matter of fact.”
