Varun joins Sunny’s mission ADVERTISEMENT It appears that Border 2 is getting bigger than before. Rumours are rife that is joining Sunny Deol in the sequel to JP Dutta’s 1997 blockbuster, Border. According to sources, Varun will play a parallel lead with the Gadar 2 star.

The actor is a fan of the war drama and believes that playing a strong role in the sequel would mark an important milestone in his career. JP’s daughter Nidhi is one of the producers. Anurag Singh, who has been entrusted with helming the period drama, is looking to begin filming in November.

Varun is expected to join the shoot in December, after the release of Baby John. In the news since its announcement in June, the film’s casting has been piquing the interest of audiences and trade alike. A few weeks ago, Ayushmann Khurrana opted out due to a busy schedule, and subsequently, reports indicated that Diljit Dosanjh is joining the cast.

The makers are expected to announce the final cast with a big event as soon as things are finalised. For now, Sunny is working on Jatt with Telugu director Gopichand, while Varun has Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari and director-father David Dhawan’s next comic entertainer. Baby on the way is gearing up for the new phase of her life.

The Pyaar Ka Punchnama (2011) actor, who tied the knot with restaurateur Ashesh Sajnani last year, is expecting their first child. The couple shared the news on social media with a series of pictures. Sonnalli can be seen flaunting her bab.
