In a previous interview with Zoom, Sunny spoke about his bond with Salman. He said, "Salman and I have known each other over the years when he was not even acting. We interacted with each other and he always used to look after me and he always wanted to be strong (wanted to be like me) and we also did a film together. He always stood by me. It is the kind of respect we have for each other."

On Koffee With Karan 8, Sunny's younger brother Bobby Deol opened up about how Salman played an instrumental role in reviving his career a few years ago. He said, "Salman told me that 'Dekh jab mera career thik nahi chal raha tha, main tere bhai ke peeth pad chad gaya tha, main aage badha, main Sanjay Dutt ke peeth par chad gaya, main aage badha.' We call each other mamu, toh maine usko bola 'Mamu, toh mujhe tere peeth par chadhne de na'. So, he remembered that and a couple of years later, I got a phone call from him and he said 'Mamu shirt utarega?'I said, 'Haan mamu main kuch bhi karunga'. So, that's how I got Race (Salman told me that 'Look, when my career was not going well, I piggybacked on your brother's back, I piggybacked on Sanjay Dutt's back, and moved forward.' We called each other Mamu, so I said to him 'Mamu, let me ride on your back too'. So, he remembered that and a couple of years later, I got a phone call from him and he said 'Mamu will you remove your shirt [on camera]' I said, 'I will do anything'. So, that's how I got Race)."
