The unexpected visit occurred as Border 2 continues to draw large crowds nationwide, achieving significant box office success within just three days of its release. The film has already crossed ₹100 crore mark at the box office in India.

Border 2, directed and co-written by Anurag Singh, is a sequel to the 1997 film Border, directed by J.P. Dutta. The new film expands upon the original, presenting a multi-front war narrative involving the Indian Army, Air Force, and Navy. It delves deeper into the camaraderie and sacrifices of soldiers, offering a gripping and emotional cinematic experience.

Sunny Deol reprises his role as Lt Col Fateh Singh Kaler, a commanding officer and mentor to younger soldiers played by Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty. The cast also includes Mona Singh, Sonam Bajwa, Anya Singh, and Medha Rana, each playing pivotal roles.

In addition to the Gaiety Galaxy visit, Sunny Deol recently made a rare public appearance with his step-sisters Esha Deol and Ahana Deol at a screening of Border 2 in Mumbai. This marked their first public outing together since the passing of their father, veteran actor Dharmendra, last year.

The Centre recently announced the Padma Awards 2026, posthumously awarding Dharmendra the Padma Vibhushan, the country's second-highest civilian honor, in recognition of his extraordinary contribution to Indian cinema. Dharmendra remained active until the end of his life, receiving praise for his performances in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (2023) and Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. His final film, Ikkis, was released on January 1, 2026, shortly after his death.
