Indian
defence
forces.

the

Army,

Navy,
uniting
across
services.
Early

online
credits
the
trailer,
the
music
and
the
ensemble
cast
for
building
strong
buzz.
For
the
uninitiated,
Border,
released
in
1997
and

war
film
later
gained
cult
status
on
television
re-runs
and
streaming
platforms.
That
continuing
popularity
has
shaped
expectations
from
Border
2,
especially
among
viewers
who
grew
up
with
the
first
film.
JP
Dutta
returns
to
the
franchise
this
time
with
Nidhi
Dutta,
who
joins
on
the
creative
side.

Meanwhile,
talking
about
Border
2,
Sunny
Deol
stated
in
an
event,
“Whenever
you
wear
the
uniform
there’s
an
excitement
that
you
feel
and
you
feel
you
are
also
a
soldier.
We
don’t
train
like
soldiers
but
we
carry
the
same
emotions
inside
us.
It’s
just
that
we
get
the
opportunity
to
essay
the
character
of
a
soldier
and
99
percent
times
it
is
the
uniform
that
give
us
the
strength
to
play
the
part,
besides
we’ve
to
add
certain
things
from
our
end”.
