1) Having a uni-brow and dusky skin did not get many eyeballs.
2) Films depicted new India and showed progressive thinking by talking about teen issues, premarital sex, teen pregnancy.

No Judgment based on looks.

Abs were not a standard for being a good actor.

And sometimes even two of the same ‘khan’.

Sunny Deol was the ideal young man.
