Sunny Deol is now basking in the success of Gadar 2, his most recent release. With his portrayal of Tara Singh, the actor once more dazzled the audience. The movie released to a thunderous reception from the audience, earning Rs 40.10 crore at the box office on day 1. 

Recently while speaking to Times Now, Sunny Deol said, "I am indeed very happy. When we did the second part of Gadar, we never knew it would be so loved by the audience. Two whole generations have gone by since we did the first Gadar. And still, people are as excited as they were the first time. I am amazed and very very happy. We need some hits to keep the film industry on its feet.” 

When asked what his secret to longevity was, he said, “I don't know! I don't think about how old I am. I've never done that. I've always done my work to the best of my abilities regardless of my age."

Meanwhile, Gadar 2 is a sequel to the popular 2001 film Gadar: Ek Prem Katha and is directed by Anil Sharma. The 1975 setting of the film tells the story of Tara Singh, who crosses the Pakistan-India border to save and return to his family with his son Charanjeet. 

Tara Singh is once again played by Sunny Deol, Sakina by Ameesha Patel, and Charanjeet by Utkarsh Sharma. Simrat Kaur, Manish Wadha, Gaurav Chopra, and Luv Sinha all have significant parts in the film.
