If you grew up in the 90s, the song “Sandese Aate Hain” probably still gives you goosebumps. Well, get ready to feel that patriotism all over again! After nearly 30 years, the legendary war drama is returning to the big screen with Border 2.
Released on January 23, 2026, to celebrate the Republic Day weekend, this film isn’t just a sequel; it’s a tribute to the heroes of the 1971 Indo-Pak war. This time, the scale is bigger, the emotions are deeper, and the action covers the Army, Navy, and Air Force!
The Power-Packed Cast
The biggest highlight is the return of the “OG” soldier, Sunny Deol, as Lt Col Fateh Singh Kaler. But he isn’t alone. The film features a massive ensemble of stars who are ready to defend the nation:
