And now the industry is buzzing for more updates on Border 2. While some are speculating that the makers have identified a new war and a fresh tale for the Border sequel, we hear that Border 2 will be a continuation from the point where Border ended. An insider shares, “Sunny Deol will play the part of Major Kuldeep Singh Chandrapuri yet again, as he gears up for another war. Much like the first film, this one is also set in the same timeline as the Longewala Battle in 1971.”
Apart from Sunny Deol and Ayushmann Khurrana, two other actors will come on board the film, one of which is expected to be from the Punjabi film industry. The shoot for Border 2 begins in October and the makers are planning to shoot some of the biggest war scenes seen on the spectacle. The week has been eventful as following the success of Munjya, producer Dinesh Vijan reannounced the Stree 2 for an Independence Day 2024 release.
