Border 2, which also stars Ahan Shetty, Varun Dhawan, and Diljit Dosanjh, will open in theatres from January 23.

Recently, at an event in Jaisalmer, Sunny Deol remembered his father Dharmendra's war film 'Haqeeqat', saying that it had a "strong impact" on him as a child, which motivated him to make 'Border'.

"I did 'Border' because when I watched my father's (Dharmendra) film 'Haqeeqat', I loved it deeply. I was a child then. So, when I became an actor, I decided to make a film similar to my father's movie. I spoke to J P Dutta, and we decided to make a film on the Longewala subject, which is extremely close to our hearts and lives in the hearts of all of you," said Sunny Deol.

Sunny Deol reflected on the film Border's impact on youth, saying he never imagined it would inspire young people to join the armed forces.

"Wherever I go, I never knew that we would give so much confidence to so many young people that they would choose to join the armed forces. Whenever I meet them, they tell me that after watching my film, they decided to join the army," said Sunny.

The fact that the original film inspired youth to join the armed forces is the biggest compliment any filmmaker or actor can get. That's true impact. Salute to the team.

Excited but also a bit skeptical. The first one set the bar so high. Hope Border 2 lives up to the legacy and isn't just a cash grab with new stars. Fingers crossed!

The BTS pictures gave me chills! The dedication is palpable. As someone married to an army officer's son, these stories always hit close to home. All the best for the release.
