Sunny Deol, Ayushmann Khurrana Border 2 To Begin In 2024

After the massive success of Gadar 2, Bollywood veteran hero Sunny Deol has set the ball in motion. He is all set to join hands with actor Ayushmann Khurrana for the sequel of his remarkable hit Border, Border 2. The film, helmed by first part director JP Dutta’s daughter, producer-writer Nidhi Dutta, is expected to start shooting in the first quarter of 2024.

Sunny Deol, who played a pivotal role in Border, will once again lead the cast with the film set to delve into the historical backdrop of the 1971 India-Pakistan war. The remaining cast is expected to be finalised in the coming weeks. Nidhi Dutta who is also penning the script, envisions Border 2 as the biggest war film ever made in the country. 

Unlike its predecessors, the movie aims to showcase the collaborative efforts of the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force, offering a comprehensive perspective on the 1971 war. The narrative will also be interwoven with personal stories of war heroes and martyrs, adding a human touch to the grand spectacle of warfare like Border.

The pre-production for the film already began in 2022, involving multiple trips to Delhi to obtain necessary permissions from the Defence Ministry for shooting in real locations and using authentic names, ensuring an authentic representation of historical events. The film not only pays tribute to the historical events of the 1971 war but also explores the human stories that unfolded on the battlefield.
