Sunny Deol is getting a lot of attention for being the butt of slip of tongue jokes, be it Arnab getting him confused with Sunny Leone on counting day or the more recent one during his oath taking ceremony.
The actor-turned-politician mistakenly said “withhold the sovereignty and integrity of India” instead of saying “uphold the sovereignty and integrity of India” while taking his oath in Lok Sabha on 18 June.
Deol, however, immediately corrected himself. Also present along with him were Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal and Aam Aadmi Party's MP Bhagwant Mann, who were also taking the oath.
Sunny Deol who is a first-time MP, defeated Suni Jhakar of the Congress party from Gurdaspur seat.
Despite having become a member of Parliament, what’s keeping people more interested in his life apart from the political fiasco, was his longstanding tiff with Shah Rukh Khan after their infamous movie Darr. Post Darr, Sunny and SRK didn’t interact for over sixteen years, he revealed on Aap Ki Aadalat.
