New Delhi: Actors Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol will grace the couch on the second episode of Koffee With Karan Season 8. Bobby Deol opened up about the low phase of his career, during the conversation. Talking about the time when he withdrew from the industry and struggled to get work, the actor said that he started self-pitying himself and started drinking a lot. 

"I gave up, I started self-pitying myself. I just took on drinking a lot, I was sitting at home. I used to keep cursing and saying, why don't people take me? I am good, why don't they want to work with me? I think I became so negative about everything, that there was no positiveness coming from me. I used to sit at home, my wife worked,” he said on Koffee With Karan. 

"Suddenly I heard my son saying, 'you know Mom, Papa sits at home and you go to work everyday'. Something snapped in me. I just said, no I can't. It was a slow process, when I got out of it, it took me time to get into the right mind frame to become okay. It can't happen overnight. My brother, my dad, my mom, my sisters, they were always there," he added. 

"You cannot always do anything holding someone’s hand. You have to walk on your two feet. Then things started changing. I became more focused, more serious and when you focus and you have that energy in you. I mean I have gone and met so many people, I said to myself, I will go and meet people, tell them I want to work with you all. I came to you also, you still haven't worked with me,” he said further. 

Bobby Deol will be seen in Ranbir Kapoor’s 'Animal', and Telugu movies 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', and 'Kanguva' next.
