according to the http://www.pinkvilla.com
Sunny Deol is reportedly keen on releasing Border 2 in theatres ahead of his other war drama, Lahore 1947. According to sources, there’s a strong possibility that Border 2 will hit the big screen first. Given the current diplomatic tensions between India and Pakistan, Sunny believes Border 2 may resonate more with audiences. It remains to be seen which of the two films will arrive in cinemas first.
Both Films Underway with Intense Schedules
Sunny Deol is currently working on both Lahore 1947 and Border 2, with production on both films in full swing. Interestingly, both movies revolve around India-Pakistan war themes, yet they are being handled as two distinct projects with individual release strategies. Planning around their respective release windows has already begun.
Initially, Sunny began shooting for Lahore 1947, a film directed by veteran filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi. The project was in the works even before the release of Gadar 2, and the shoot started shortly after that film’s success. Later, Sunny started working on Border 2. However, he is now suggesting that Border 2 be released first.

Current Geopolitical Climate Could Favor ‘Border 2’
Sunny Deol plays the lead in both films. Border 2 is set against the backdrop of the India-Pakistan war and features a strong cast including Varun Dhawan, Ahaan Shetty, and Diljit Dosanjh. Directed by Kesari fame Anurag Singh, the film is being crafted as a patriotic war epic, with a modern take yet retaining the emotional flavor of the original Border.
With the current war-like tension between India and Pakistan, Sunny feels Border 2 could strike a timely chord with viewers. This reasoning has reportedly been shared with the filmmakers, and there is growing consideration to advance Border 2’s release ahead of Lahore 1947.
Sunny Deol made a powerful comeback in the film industry with the massive success of Gadar 2, which performed exceptionally well at the box office. Following its blockbuster run, Sunny has been flooded with offers for major projects. His film Jaat also did well commercially, further solidifying his return. Now, he is set to appear in back-to-back big-budget films, currently busy with the shooting of Lahore 1947 and Border 2. Both films are high-scale productions and have strong box office potential.
