Who knew that Bollywood darling Diljit Dosanjh was so ready to take flight? T-Series and JP Films certainly did! Fans are stoked to see the first glimpse of our beloved Punjabi star seated in a high-tech fighter jet, rocking an Indian Air Force officer's uniform in the upcoming film “Border 2”.

Buckle up, folks, because this isn't your standard military operation. Looks like “Border 2” is set to take us on an aerial thrill ride! This is a pretty big deal considering it is an expansion of the franchise’s plot, which until now, has kept boots firmly on the ground.

Rewind to 1997, and the original “Border” gave us Sunny Deol heroically battling it out in the border region of Longewala during the dramatic events of '71. Need a refresher? This intense flick had a modest Indian battalion whooping a large Pakistani strike force. Seriously, it ranks up there as a benchmark in Indian war cinema.

Ready for a recap of the dream team behind this film? Anurag Singh, the man who directed Akshay Kumar in “Kesari” (2019), is back in the director's chair. “Border 2” reunites Diljit with Singh, a dynamic duo known for making magic in Punjabi-language films like “Jatt & Juliet”, “Disco Singh”, “Punjab 1984”, and “Super Singh”.

And what's a war flick without a star-studded platoon? Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Ahan Shetty, Medha Rana, Mona Singh and Sonam Bajwa have answered the call to serve with Dosanjh in this action-packed sequel. A film produced by Bhushan Kumar, JP Dutta and Nidhi Dutta under the T-Series and JP Films banners, we’re honestly expecting cinematic fireworks!

But good things come to those who wait! The eagerly anticipated film is set to be unveiled on January 23, 2026, during Republic Day weekend. For those who don't know, this is a prime slot for flicks that wave the tricolor high. So, blood pumping yet? Let's gear up and fly into the action with “Border 2”!
