Sunny Deol and Anil Sharma have to be the most loved actor-director duo. The two have given some of the biggest hits in Bollywood. Now, reports have it that while Anil Sharma has the script of Apne 2 ready,
the director has yet another film prepared for his favourite actor Sunny Deol. Reportedly, Anil Sharma is planning yet another grand film.
Pinkvilla, in a report, shared that Anil Sharma recently met Sunny Deol and discussed a larger-than-life action-drama titled Coal King. The report also claimed that “Gadar 3 is in the works and the writers are working on an idea to expand the world of Gadar into a trilogy.”
The portal quoted a source saying, “Anil Sharma and Sunny Deol have been discussing several original ideas over the last two years – and the one which has excited both of them at this point of time is a larger-than-life drama set against the backdrop of the Coal Mafia. It’s titled Coal King and features Sunny Deol in a never-before-seen avatar. The script is written, and it is all work in progress on the dialogue draft at the moment.”
“Apart from Coal King, Anil Sharma is also working on Gadar 3 as a big-scale period action film. A call on his immediate next will be taken by the end of this year, but the three scripts are presently being worked upon simultaneously,” the source added.
Sunny Deol’s Work Front
Coming back to Sunny’s work front, he will next be seen in Border 2 along with Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty. The film is slated to hit the big screens in January 2026.
Besides this, he also has Aamir Khan’s production Lahore 1947 with Preity Zinta, director Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, Farhan Akhtar’s untitled project, as well as director Siddharth P. Malhotra’s next project.
A report has also claimed that he has finally resumed the shoot of his next film Soorya after three years.
Mid-day has quoted Soorya producer Deepak Mukut saying that the actor is currently shooting action climax sequences with Ravi Kishan and Manish Wadhwa: “We are shooting a massive action scene on a set, reflecting a hospital, constructed at the Golden Tobacco Factory. Action director Ravi Varma is executing it along with a unit of over 350 people. It’s a hand-to-hand combat scene featuring Sunny,” he said.
The producer further mentioned that Sunny has to fight a case. “So, he is back to his Damini [1993] avatar, doing lots of action and mouthing dramatic dialogues as he seeks justice. This leg will be filmed on a set, in Naigaon, perhaps. After that, we will begin post-production. We may release a teaser and trailer this year as we plan to release Soorya in early 2026,” he further added.
