Earlier, there have been rumors of ‘Border 2’ being in the works, and it will be written and produced by Nidhi Dutta, daughter of JP Dutta. Initially, it was presumed that the film would be a sequel to the 1997 classic. However, our close sources have informed us that this is not the case.
A source informed ETimes, “Border 2 is not going to be a sequel, but instead, it is a story that took place the same night as Border’s events. The battle of Longewala was fought not just by our Indian army but also by the Navy and the Air Force, and the story of ‘Border 2 will recap events from the perspectives of all three wings of the Indian Armed Forces.”

J.P. Dutta’s Border is a cult film in the Indian film landscape. Released in 1997, the film, which was written, directed, and produced by the legendary director, was an adaptation of real-life events that happened during the Battle of Longewala in 1971 and starred Sunny Deol, Jackie Shroff, and Sunil Shetty in the lead.
