A sequel to partition drama Gadar on the anvil

Filmmaker Anil Sharma and superstar Sunny Deol have worked together on several high-profile films in the past, with the 2001 partition drama Gadar: Ek Prem Katha being the most successful one.

Released alongside Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan’s Lagaan (2001), the movie went on to become the most watched film of its time and still attracts a huge chunk of audiences during its television premieres.


After eighteen years of its theatrical release, reports of a sequel to the film have started emerging in media. Yes, according to reports, director Anil Sharma is planning a sequel to the blockbuster film and if all goes well, Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel will return to reprise their roles of Tara Singh and Sakina respectively.

"We have been working on Gadar sequel since 15 years. Gadar will be a story of Tara (Sunny), Sakina (Ameesha Patel) and Jeet (their son). The story will move ahead with the India-Pakistan angle; Gadar is incomplete without it. The cast will remain the same, like how we have seen in films like Baahubali, Rambo, Fast and Furious, etc. We have discussed the idea with Sunny. We can't disclose anything at the moment,” a source close to the development reveals to a newswire.

Well, we are surely excited to see Sunny in the role of Tara once again. Meanwhile, the actor is presently busy with the post-production work of his son’s debut film Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas, which is expected to release in the second half of the year.
