The teaser of Border 2 was unveiled on the occasion of Vijay Diwas at a grand ceremony in Mumbai, attended by the film’s principal cast, including Varun Dhawan and Ahan Shetty. During the interaction, Sunny delivered one of the film’s stirring lines, “Awaaz kahan tak jaani chahiye?” As the crowd responded with a loud “Lahore tak,” the actor repeated the dialogue with the same force heard in the teaser. However, the intensity of the moment soon gave way to raw emotion, as Sunny struggled to hold back tears, drawing a heartfelt response from those present.

The appearance carried special significance, coming weeks after Sunny lost his father. Dharmendra had been admitted to hospital earlier in November following health complications and was later discharged to continue his recovery at home. During that period, reports about his death had circulated online, which were firmly denied by his wife Hema Malini and daughter Esha Deol. On November 24, Dharmendra passed away peacefully. His final rites were held at the Pawan Hans crematorium, attended by close family members and several prominent figures from the film industry, including Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan.
