Bollywood star Sunny Deol was recently asked if people in India and Pakistan had been inspired by the cross-border love story in his romantic action film Gadar, which was released in 2001. This comes in light of the upcoming sequel Gadar 2, which is set to release on August 11, 2023.
In an interview with Aaj Tak, Deol was asked about Seema Haider, a Pakistani national, who came to India in May with her children to live with Sachin Meena, a man she says she is in love with. Deol said that it was their personal matter and people should let others live. Deol was also asked about Anju, an Indian, who reportedly tied the knot with her Pakistani Facebook friend Nasrullah.
The Ghayal (1990) actor said we should not slam them or pay attention to such things as it is their life and whether it is right or wrong is their personal matter.
When Deol was asked if he keeps up with news about the recent cross-border love stories, he said, "It (news) has become business, it is not actual news or anything. It is more of a commodity, and people are consuming it. And we are giving it to them. That is what reality is actually as a matter of fact."
Gadar 2, set to be released on August 11, 2023, is the sequel to Deol's 2001 romantic action cross-border film Gadar: Ek Prem Katha. The second installment has been directed by Anil Sharma and stars Deol and Ameesha Patel in their 2001 iconic roles of Tara Singh and Sakina. Gadar 2 has been co-produced by Anil Sharma and Zee Studios. The sequel comes over two decades after the original, Gadar.
