Border 2 has finally hit the screens on January 23, coinciding with the Republic Day weekend. The film starring an ensemble cast of Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh and Ahan Shetty, is a spiritual sequel to the 1997 classic centred on the 1971 Indo-Pak War. Earlier, Sunny had spoken about how he was inspired to do the film because of his late father, the legendary actor Dharmendra, who passed away in November 2025. Now, the actor and proud son has paid an emotional tribute to his father in the film.
