Varun Dhawan registers a striking arc in his filmography by transitioning into a patriotic spectacle with his upcoming film, Border 2. Ahead of the film’s grand release, the actor held an unfiltered #Varunsays
session on X (formerly Twitter) and revealed what intrigued him about the script of Border 2.
Heaping praise on co-star Sunny Deol and talking about Border 2, Varun shared, “A war can never be won by an individual, it takes all forces to come together. In #border2 we have the army, navy and airforce together oh ya and also the one man army Sunny Deol.”
The film’s song ‘Ghar Kab Aaoge’ is making waves online, and Varun expressed sheer joy that the audience has embraced the track. “I had Bijuria and now the audience has made #gharkabaaoge also a hit so I’m happy the song is playing all over sab kar rahe hain ooooooo oh oooo again,” he wrote, while reacting to another post.
Pulling off a patriotic genre with utmost honesty is one big feat, and being applauded by a real-life braveheart for showcasing the lives of soldiers is an entirely different feat. Lakshya Chaudhary, soldier, took to X and wrote, “@Varun_dvn I am also a soldier ur acting is very good in #Border2 & Do your work so quietly that success itself makes the noise.” To this, Varun replied, “Thank u sir. . Ek soldier ne bol diya usse zyada kuch nahi chaiye mujhe.”
Border 2 shows Varun Dhawan play the role of Colonel Hoshiar Singh Dahiya PVC, who led his troops with unflinching courage during the 1971 Indo-Pakistan war, and was awarded the Param Vir Chakra for his heroism, India’s highest military honour. Directed by Anurag Singh, Border 2 also stars Sunny Deol, Diljit Dosanjh and Ahan Shetty, and is scheduled to release in theatres on January 23, 2026.
