The Legacy Charm

It is not a hidden fact that the legacy charm always works for a sequel. A sentiment and love for the OG film leads people to flock to the theatres to watch the second installment. The latest blockbuster success of Stree 2 is a prime example of that. And a little closer to home, Sunny Deol’s own 2023 film Gadar 2 is an example of how the charm of the OG movie can also work for its sequel. It is not a hidden fact that the 1997 film Border was not only a humongous success but also became one of the most memorable war films made in Indian cinema. Right from the performances to the direction and the songs, everything is still etched in the hearts of the fans. Needless to say, this might work favorably for Border 2.

Diljit Dosanjh’s Magic

Well, needless to say, Diljit Dosanjh being a part of Border 2 might work wonders for the movie. The actor enjoys a massive fan-following amongst the Punjabi population in Canada. This might result in some impressive overseas collections for Border 2. The actor always brings his A-game to every project that he is associated with.
