Varun Dhawan's bromance with Diljit Dosanjh: Actor recollects singing Punjabi superstar's songs in front of the singer himself
"I used to go to him and sing his songs to him - Varun Dhawan"

Mumbai, Jan 21

Actor Varun Dhawan, who is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film 'Border 2', has shared his experience of working with Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh in the film.

The actor attended a special event for the film on Tuesday, and said that he used to sing Diljit's songs in front of the Punjabi superstar himself. Varun later questioned his act of singing the songs, as he said, "We used to play cricket together. We used to work out together. So, we used to have fun together. We used to have ice-cream together. And we used to have fun with Diljit sir. I used to go to him and sing his songs to him".

"So, I don't know, it happens sometimes. When someone is your favourite singer. I mean, I do these things. Why did I have to sing his songs to him?", he said, as he laughed.

Meanwhile, the actor is awaiting the release of 'Border 2'. The war film is positioned as a sequel to J. P. Dutta's 1997 blockbuster 'Border', which depicted the Battle of Longewala during the 1971 India-Pakistan war. The sequel has been officially announced and is being developed as a large-scale patriotic drama, aiming to revisit the tone and military focus that made the original film a cultural landmark.

Sunny Deol, who played Major Kuldip Singh Chandpuri in 'Border', has been confirmed to return, anchoring the sequel's continuity with the original. The film is reported to be directed by Anurag Singh, known for Kesari (2019), suggesting a treatment that combines battlefield realism with character-driven storytelling.

Production responsibilities are said to be shared by J. P. Dutta's banner along with major studio backing, indicating a significantly higher budget and contemporary production values.

Excited for Border 2! The first one gives me goosebumps every time. Sunny Deol returning is perfect. But I hope they focus more on the real heroes and the sacrifice, not just star power and bromance. Jai Hind!

Diljit Dosanjh in a war film? Interesting choice. He's a fantastic performer, but hope his role is substantial and not just for the Punjabi audience draw. The combo of Anurag Singh and JP Dutta sounds promising though.

As someone who grew up watching Border with my family, this news is huge. The original soundtrack and that iconic Sandese Aate Hain song are unforgettable. The pressure is on for this sequel. Please don't make it just another generic patriotic drama.

Varun singing Diljit's songs to him is peak Indian fan behaviour, haha! "Sir" ke saamne gaana gaa dena. On a serious note, hope the film's scale matches the emotion of the Longewala story. Our military history deserves the best treatment.

Good to see a big budget being allocated. The original was technically great for its time. With today's VFX, the battle scenes should be breathtaking. Just hoping the story and dialogue have the same punch and aren't diluted.
