Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel are teaming up again for Gadar 2 and on the occasion of Republic Day 2023, the film's creators and cast revealed a new poster as well as the film's release date. Gadar 2 will be released on August 11, 2023. Anil Sharma, who directed the original Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, will direct the upcoming film (2001).
Sunny Deol appears in a desi avatar in the first look poster for Gadar 2. The actor is dressed in green and holding a sledgehammer as he walks through what appears to be the rubble of a demolished structure. Sharing the film's poster, Sunny tweeted,
The film also stars filmmaker Anil Sharma's son, actor Utkarsh Sharma, who played Sunny and Amisha's son in Gadar: Ek Prem Katha.
Sunny appeared in Anil Sharma's Gadar: Ek Prem Katha alongside Amrish Puri and Ameesha Patel. At the time, the 2001 drama was one of the highest-grossing films in Bollywood history. The sequel arrives more than two decades after the first. A portion of the upcoming film has already been shot in Lucknow by the director. Gadar 2 is currently in the works.
Sunny Deol said in September last year that filmmakers "miscalculate" when making sequels. But he was optimistic about the sequel to his popular film, Gadar: Ek Prem Katha. Sunny had told in an interview, “We mess things up while doing part two. If the writing is good, we must do part two, but we shouldn’t make it just for the sake of it. I am very confident about the film. Whomever I meet wants to see something and we are giving them that in Gadar Ek Prem Katha. We resume shooting in October and wrap it up by December. It will be an early 2023 release."
Filmmaker Anil Sharma had told in an interview, "We have worked with the same cast and characters. Tara Singh (Sunny), Sakina (Amisha), and Jeete (Utkarsh Sharma). The story too has progressed 22 years ahead. My son (Utkarsh) has grown from a kid to a youngster so it’s a natural progression for everyone. For the new audience, it will be a new film and for old-timers, it’s a sequel.”
