The story related in Border 2 takes place in the background of the 1971 war with Pakistan, which is among the most important chapters in the history of Indian subcontinent. It was the most historic war that gave India a great victory. Indian soldiers defeated the Pakistani Army, resulting in the 93,000 soldiers being captured by the Indian Army. This landmark victory is portrayed on the screen on a large scale.
Talking about the cast, Sunny Deol once again returns in his powerful patriotic avatar, known for his thunderous voice and commanding screen presence. This time, the film also features younger stars, including Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty, in key roles. Several other actors appear in important characters as well. Director Anurag Singh has mounted the film on a grand scale, and the war sequences are visually striking, emotionally charged, and impactful.
One meme that has gone viral shows how Pakistanis might react after watching Border 2. This meme is inspired by a popular episode from the TV show ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’, where the character Jethalal travels to Pakistan. The humorous comparison has struck a chord with viewers and is being widely shared for laughs.
Yet another viral meme shows Sunny Deol standing alone against Pakistan, symbolizing his dominance. The meme places Sunny Deol’s intense image on one side, while Pakistan’s General Asim Munir appears on the other. This comparison has sparked a lot of discussion and engagement online.
Following the film’s release, Sunny Deol shared a video where he is seen driving, enjoying moments on the sets, and spending time with the Border 2 team. His confidence, energy, and enthusiasm are clearly visible in the video. After delivering yet another film that fans say “plays Pakistan’s band,” Sunny Deol is receiving massive praise and admiration from audiences and supporters across social media.
