Bobby Deol refuses to oblige fans

 Suresh Yamla, grandson of Yamla Jatt, is upset with actor Bobby Deol, who could not spare a few minutes to meet him while in the city. And Suresh's family happens to have permitted the producers of the film 'Yamla Pagala Deewana' to use his grandfather Yamla Jatt's name.

After launching a resort in village Lalton Kalan between Daad and Thakrewal villages on Saturday night, Bobby left the city on Sunday around 8 am. He was gone with the rain that lashed the city in the morning. While many residents enjoyed the showers, others, fans of the actor, were left high and dry as they were not able to get an autograph or photograph of their star.

The family of Yamla Jatt was disappointed too. They had allowed the Deol family to use Yamla Jatt's name in their movie 'Yamla Pagala Deewana' and that too without charging any royalty from them. On Saturday night, grandson Suresh performed at the four-day Baisakhi festival in the city, that concluded last night.

Talking to TOI, Suresh Yamla Jatt, grandson of Ustaad Lal Chand Yamla Jatt, said he and his family had always worked to keep the name of the legend alive. That was the reason he and his family had allowed the Deols to use his name in the movie without charging any royalty from them.

Suresh said even the artists who were accompanying him at the performance were upset that Bobby had not met him. He said it was very difficult for him to face his family members now. 'They had told me to invite Bobby to our place, but when I told them he had a busy schedule and I was unable to meet him, they were disenchanted,' he said. 
He said he had received lots of calls from Deols' hometown as people of Sahnewal were hoping he would visit the town, but they all were also upset when they came to know Dharmendra's son had not even met him.

A waiter had to feel the heat too- He requested Bobby to get a photograph clicked with him, but he refused to oblige him and complained about it to the hotel management.
