Border Vs Border 2: The sequel of 'Border', 'Border 2', which was released in theaters after almost 29 years, has created a stir at the box office as soon as it arrived. The line drawn by JP Dutta's 1997 'Border' has been made bigger and grander this time by director Anurag Singh. But is this film just a box of old memories? no way. This time the trio of Varun Dhawan and Diljit Dosanjh along with Sunny Deol has given a new direction to the story. Let us know those 5 big changes between 'Border' and 'Border 2' which make this film a 'complete entertainment package'.
1. All three armies together for the first time: Old 'Border' Mainly based on the Army and the battle of Longewala, where in the end the Air Force comes to help. But the canvas of 'Border 2' is very big. This time in the film, the bravery of Army, Navy and Air Force has been shown equally. While Varun Dhawan is leading the army (Hoshiar Singh), Diljit Dosanjh (Nirmal Jit Singh Sekhon) and Ahan Shetty (MS Rawat) are seen destroying Pakistan on the waves of the sea.
Sunny Deol is the only old face in the film, but he is not Major Kuldeep Singh but in the new and powerful avatar of Lieutenant Colonel Fateh Singh Kaler. The rest of the cast of the film has completely changed. Varun Dhawan and Ahan Shetty. Diljit Dosanjh is also seen showing his magic in this film along with the youth. But for the old fans, JP Dutta's legacy has been saluted by including cameos of Sunil Shetty and Akshaye Khanna through digital technology (AI).
The explosions which were caused by real gunpowder in 1997, have been decorated with world class VFX and CGI in 2026. Although there is discussion on social media regarding graphics at some places, the grandeur with which the scenes of air strike and sea battle (INS Khukri Mission) have been brought on screen is rarely seen in Indian cinema.
'Border 2' is not just a tear-jerking film. This time Anurag Singh has also given place to comedy in the story. The fun between the soldiers, Diljit Dosanjh's comic timing scenes and his bonding with Varun Dhawan make the first half of the film quite light-hearted and entertaining. These changes turn the film into a 'full paisa vasool' package.
JP Dutta's 'Border' was known for its long shots and raw emotions. But 'Kesari' fame Anurag Singh has made 'Border 2' fast-paced according to today's generation. While preserving the original emotion of the film i.e. 'Mitti ki Khushboo', he has added modern war tactics and stylish action to it. It would not be wrong to say that Anurag has done complete justice to the film.
if you sunny deol If you are a fan of Indian Army and want to see the bravery of your army in a new style, then 'Border 2' is the biggest must-watch film of this year. This film not only reminds us of the border, but also tells the story of the new strength of the new India.
