Actor turned politician Sunny Deol, while filing his nomination from Gurdaspur got a felicitation he absolutely deserves.

A Handpump!

A supporter presented Deol with a hand pump as a tribute to the iconic scene from the movie ‘Gadar’ where Deol uproots a similar pump with his bare hands.

A throwback from the 2001 blockbuster film ‘Gadar' that people present in the rally simply loved!

Union ministers VK Singh, Jitendra Singh and Vijay Sampla were in attendance during the nomination rally while Sunny was accompanied by his brother Bobby Deol.

Deol reminded supporters about his ‘dhai kilo ka haath’ during his four-minute speech and said he is a patriot but does not know much about politics.

After he filed his nomination papers, his father Dharmendra took to the micro-blogging site and tweeted in his support, "We are asking for your support. If you support us, the victory will be yours. The victory will be of my brother and sisters of Punjab and the beautiful Gurdaspur."

“Eh dhai kilo da hathh je kise te penda hai, tan oh uthda nahin, utth jaanda hai,” Deol was quoted by PTI.

In Gurdaspur, Deol is contesting against Punjab Congress chief Sunil Jhakar, People Democratic Alliance’s Lal Chand and Aam Aadmi Party’s Peter Masih.
