Varun Dhawan joins the cast of Border 2
A few hours ago, Varun Dhawan took to his official social media accounts to share an exciting new promo of Border 2, confirming his role in the highly anticipated sequel. Along with the promo, Dhawan expressed his deep emotions about being part of the iconic Border franchise. Reflecting on his childhood memories, he shared the following words.
“I was just a kid in class four when I went to Chandan cinema and saw Border. And it made such a big impact. I still remember the sense of national pride we all felt in the hall when we saw JP sir’s Border. To play a part in Border 2, produced by JP sir and Bhushan Kumar, is a very, very special moment in my career. And I get to work with Sunny Paaji, so that makes it all the more special. I look forward to bringing a valiant jawaan’s story to the screen in what promises to be India’s biggest war film. I seek your good wishes ? Jai Hind.”
Adding to the excitement, Sunny Deol also welcomed Varun Dhawan as a “Fauji” in the Border Battalion with a post on his social media accounts. This strongly suggests that Dhawan will play the role of a new recruit under the leadership of Major Kuldeep Singh, played by Deol.
In addition to Dhawan’s confirmation, there is also speculation that Diljit Dosanjh might join the cast of Border 2, further fueling anticipation for this epic sequel. It will be intriguing to see who else will join this star-studded cast as Border 2 gears up to hit the screens.
