Sunny Deol Reveals 'Border 2' Was Supposed To Start in 2015: 'But Then My Film Flopped And People Were Scared'

After the success of 'Gadar 2', there were rumours that Sunny Deol will return as his enduring character from JP Dutta's 1997 blockbuster war picture 'Border'.

New Delhi: After the success of Gadar 2, there were rumours that Sunny Deol will return as his enduring character from JP Dutta's 1997 blockbuster war picture Border. However, the actor later clarified that he hasn't yet signed a film deal. Now, Sunny has disclosed that before it was put on hold, he intended to begin Border 2 in 2015.

Sunny Deol talked about 'Border 2' on Ranveer Allahabadia's podcast 'The Ranveer Show' and said, "Sunne toh mujhe bhi aaya hai” (I've also heard that they're making Border 2) (laughs). Ye hum bahut pehle karne wale the… 2015 mein. Par phir meri picture nahi chali, toh log ghabra ke nahi banana chah rahe. Ab sab bol rahe hain humey karni hai. (We were meant to start it a lot earlier, in 2015. But then my film flopped, so people were scared to make it then. Now, everyone wants to make it)."

'I Love New Year', a romantic comedy directed by Radhika Rao and starring Sunny opposite Kangana Ranaut, may be the 2015 movie he's alluding to. T-Series, owned by Bhushan Kumar, produced it.

The actor, who is currently enjoying all the fame, courtesy his blockbuster film 'Gadar 2', expressed his own wish to make the film and added, "Wo characters bade hi pyaare the. Aaj main koi film dekhta hu toh mujhe lagta hai mujhe unn characters ka extension mile. Wo karne ka dil toh bahut karta hai. Lekin kahani bhi waisi hi honi chahiye, jisse wo character ko ek justification de. Jissey log jo ummeed le ke ja rahe hain ki humey mazza mile, wo mazza unhne mile jaise unko meri film Gadar 2 mein mil raha hai. (Those characters were really lovely. When I watch a film today, I want to see an extension of those characters. I feel like doing it, but the story should lend a justification to that character. So that those who come to watch the film and hope it'll be fun, they're not disappointed, like they're getting that fun in my film Gadar 2)."

Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel starrer 'Gadar 2' has been unstoppable at the box office, grossing over Rs 450 crore.
