In a thrilling announcement that has sent waves of excitement through Bollywood and its legion of fans, Sunny Deol has confirmed the sequel to the 1997 blockbuster film ‘Border’. The announcement came on the 27th anniversary of the original film’s release.
Sunny Deol, who played the lead role in the original film, took to social media to announce the sequel, aptly titled ‘Border 2’. In a heartfelt video, Deol expressed his commitment to fulfilling a promise he made 27 years ago. The actor’s voiceover in the video stated, “27 saal pehle ek fauji ne vada kiya tha ki vo vapas aayega. Ussi vaade ko poora karne, Hindustan ki mitti ko apna salaam kehne, aa raha hai” (27 years ago, a soldier made a promise that he would return. To fulfill that promise and to salute the soil of India, he is returning).
Touted as India’s biggest war film, ‘Border 2’ is being produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, JP Dutta & Nidhi Dutta. The film will be directed by Anurag Singh, known for his work on films like ‘Dil Bole Hadippa!’, ‘Jatt & Juliet’, ‘Punjab 1984’, and ‘Kesari’.
The announcement video concluded on the musical notes of Roopkumar Rathod and Sonu Nigam’s iconic track ‘Sandese Aate Hain’ from the first film. This has led to speculation that the sequel will feature a revamped version of this beloved song.
The announcement has been met with widespread excitement and anticipation.
