‘Border 2’ Announced, Sunny Deol’s cult Film To Get A Sequel

Sunny Deol, who delivered a blockbuster with ‘Gadar 2’, is set to star in the sequel to yet another of his yesteryear classics. On Thursday, June 13, ‘Paaji’ announced Border 2, which features him as an army officer, much to the delight of fans.

He shared a video on Instagram that features a strong voiceover from him. Fans were also treated to the ‘Sandese Aate Hain’ song from the first part. 

‘Border 2’ will be directed by Anurag Singh, who previously wielded the microphone for ‘Punjab 1984’ and ‘Kesari’.

‘Border’ was directed by JP Dutta and is regarded as one of the finest war films of all time. It featured Sunny Deol, Suniel Shetty, Tabu and Akshaye Khanna in the lead. The movie emerged as a blockbuster and received rave reviews for its action scenes. It remains to be seen whether ‘Border 2’ lives up to these standards.

Busy Time For Sunny Deol

Sunny Deol was last seen in ‘Gadar 2’, which emerged as a blockbuster. It featured Ameesha Patel as the leading lady. The film was a sequel to ‘Gadar’ (2001) and featured a liberal dose of action. ‘Gadar 2’ set the box office on fire despite clashing with Akshay Kumar’s ‘OMG 2’. This helped Sunny bounce back after a series of underwhelming releases.
