After the historic box office success of Gadar 2, Sunny Deol is now preparing to revive another iconic patriotic saga — Border. The long-awaited sequel, Border 2, directed by Anurag Singh, has officially gone on floors with an ensemble cast that includes Varun Dhawan and Diljit Dosanjh. Promoted as “India’s Biggest War Film,” the movie is set to release on Republic Day 2026, and the scale of the project has only grown more massive.
Arijit Singh joins Sonu Nigam for ‘Sandese Aate Hai 2.0’ in Border 2, A new anthem of soldier struggles
According to Pinkvilla, producers Bhushan Kumar, JP Dutta, and Nidhi Dutta have acquired the rights to the iconic song ‘Sandese Aate Hai’ from the original Border (1997) for a reported Rs.10 crore — the highest amount ever paid to license a Hindi film song. A source shared, “‘Sandese Aate Hai’is the soul of Border, and Bhushan Kumar wanted to ensure the new version carried that same emotional weight. It’s not just a remake, it’s a tribute to the Indian Armed Forces.”
The revamped version, Sandese Aate Hai 2.0, will combine nostalgia with modern sound design. While the original track was sung by Sonu Nigam and Roop Kumar Rathod, this time Nigam will be joined by Arijit Singh. The insider added, “The song will showcase the emotional and personal battles of soldiers and will be picturized on Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, and Diljit Dosanjh.”
The film is set against the backdrop of the 1971 India–Pakistan War and continues JP Dutta’s legacy of depicting war with emotional depth and nationalistic fervor. The makers are currently deep into production and aim to wrap by August 2025. With a stellar cast, the revival of iconic music, and grand storytelling ambitions, Border 2 is shaping up to be not just a sequel — but a full-scale cinematic event.
