More often than not, a celebrity’s bodyguard also ends up making headlines along with the star personality that they are protecting. The limelight often shifts from the celebrity to the person who is in charge of keeping things at bay and protecting the star. Over the years, many celebrity bodyguards have become the centre of attention for various reasons, like Salman Khan’s bodyguard, Shera, and most recently Ram Charan’s bodyguard Kevin Kunta. Interestingly, they are not stand alone examples. In fact, here is a look at some of the bodyguards from the world of Bollywood who have managed to go equally as viral as the people they protect.

For the past three decades, Gurmeet Singh Jolly has been serving the actor loyally and has been seen accompanying him at almost every event. Over the years, the two have also developed a close bond.
