Renowned Bollywood actor Sunny Deol who contested from the Gurdaspur seat has won in the Lok Sabha 2019 General Elections. He was up against Congress sitting MP Sunil Jakhar, AAP’s Peter Masih and PDA’s Lal Chand. With many prominent names including Sunny Deol, Urmila Matondkar, Prakash Raj and others entering the field this year, it's time to cheer for the winners and give a shoulder to cry for all the losers.

This was clearly a one-sided match with Sunny Deol sweeping maximum number of votes. The actor who forayed into politics with BJP this year was a candidate from Gurdaspur, Punjab. The Betaab actor faced opposition from Congress' Sunil Jakhar but the end result was definitely overwhelming. He was able to defeat the veteran politician by a huge margin and claim his first ever victory. Sunny Deol, BJP Candidate From Gurdaspur, Kissed by Woman on Cheek During Roadshow in Batala, Watch Video.

Sunny, who was quite successful in Bollywood a few years back, had his association with the political party for quite some time. His father and veteran actor, Dharmendra, had contested the elections during the reign of Atal Bihari Vajpayee. His step-mother, Hema Malini, a ruling MP, is contesting the elections on a BJP ticket from the Mathura constituency. We certainly hope the actor is able to deliver all his promises and work hard for the betterment of his supporters and otherwise.
