By Murtuza Iqbal

Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel starrer Gadar: Ek Prem Katha is one of the best cross-border love stories made in Bollywood. It was one of the highest-grossing films of 2001 and had many scenes that are still remembered by moviegoers.


According to a report in Mid-day, after two decades, director Anil Sharma is planning a sequel to the film. A source told the tabloid, “The makers of Gadar have figured out the plot points and are working on a script. While Sunny and Ameesha Patel will be a part of the story, the director’s son Utkarsh, who essayed the role of their son Jeeta in the original, will play a pivotal part. The young actor had forayed into Bollywood in 2018 with Genius.”

While talking about it, the filmmaker told the tabloid, “Talks about a sequel are on, but I will officially confirm at the right time. At the moment, things are at a nascent stage.”

Well, currently, Anil Sharma is busy with the pre-production of Apne 2 which stars Dharmendra, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, and Karan Deol. The film will reportedly start rolling in June this year. Apne 2 was supposed to release on Diwali 2021, but it is said that the film has been postponed to 2022.

It’s one of the only things that unites us all. We cook it, eat it and talk about it every day, even if our ingredients and traditions differ. We live in a world where climate change is a looming threat, and we’re constantly seeing images of crises and mentions of highly technical or political answers. But, what if one of the solutions was closer to home?
