Teaser to be attached to ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’


According to Bollywood Hungama, the teaser of ‘Border 2’ will be unveiled on December 16 in the presence of Sunny, Varun and Ahan Shetty. Following its release, the teaser will be attached to ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’, which hits theatres on December 19, 2025. Given the massive audience expected for the James Cameron film, this move is being seen as a highly strategic marketing decision for ‘Border 2’.


Grand teaser launch on Vijay Diwas


A report by Pinkvilla cited a source close to the production, revealing that the highly awaited teaser of ‘Border 2’ will debut on December 16, 2025, in Mumbai, with the cast and crew in attendance. The date is particularly meaningful, as December 16 marks Vijay Diwas, a day that celebrates India’s triumph over Pakistan in the 1971 war. Sunny, Varun and Ahan are confirmed to be part of the grand premiere, along with director Anurag Singh and producers Bhushan Kumar and Nidhi Dutta. However, there’s still no word on whether Diljit Dosanjh will be able to attend the event.


Carrying forward the legacy of ‘Border’


The legacy of JP Dutta’s 1997 masterpiece ‘Border’ continues with its long-awaited sequel, ‘Border 2’. Known as one of Indian cinema’s most powerful war dramas, the original film went on to achieve cult status and still enjoys an unwavering fan following. The upcoming installment aims to rekindle that same national pride and emotional intensity on screen. Helmed by Anurag Singh and backed by producers Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, JP Dutta and Nidhi Dutta, the film brings together an impressive ensemble cast including Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Ahan Shetty, Diljit Dosanjh, Mona Singh, Sonam Bajwa, and more.
