The Bollywood fraternity is abuzz with excitement as Sunny Deol sets the stage for yet another monumental chapter of the Gadar series. Following the phenomenal success of Gadar 2, which shattered box office records and established Deol as the first over-60 star to break the Rs 500 crore barrier, all eyes are now on the forthcoming Gadar 3. Director Anil Sharma has lifted the veil on some intriguing details about the film that have only heightened expectations.
Anil Sharma, in an exclusive interview with Rajasthan Patrika, delved into the emotional core that will drive the narrative of Gadar 3. With the previous installment already a benchmark in terms of its gripping storyline and powerful performances, Sharma stated, “The work on the story of Gadar 3 is underway. Earlier, I used to say that I would make Gadar 2 when I had an emotional ‘bomb’ to share. Now, I say that I will make Gadar 3 when I have an emotional ‘atomic bomb’ to share.”
The significance of emotions in the Gadar series has always been its hallmark, and Sharma’s comments hint at a deeply resonant story that promises to tug at the heartstrings of the audience. As fans eagerly await more details, the director’s revelations have undoubtedly set the stage for another emotionally charged cinematic experience.
Sunny Deol’s performance in Gadar 2 was a revelation, marking his return to the pinnacle of Bollywood’s elite actors. The actor’s portrayal of Tara Singh not only resonated with audiences but also garnered critical acclaim. Witnessing the overwhelming success of Gadar 2, Deol found himself in a state of heightened emotional ecstasy, a testament to the labor of love that the project represented for him. Such was the impact of this success that the actor is reported to have revised his remuneration to a staggering Rs 50 crore. Deol addressed this in a recent statement, saying, “If the producer feels they can pay me that much, then I am okay with it. Main yeh nahi kahunga ke nahi main nahi karunga, mujhe itna nahi mila (I won’t say no to projects because I am not paid a certain amount). That’s not how I work. I like to be in a position where I don’t become a burden to a project.
.”
This practical and humble approach adds another layer to Deol’s already sterling reputation in the industry, where he is known for his dedication and work ethic. Even as discussions around his new fee structure circulate, what stands out is his unwavering commitment to his craft and to the projects he chooses to be part of.
Moreover, fans of Sunny Deol have more to look forward to beyond just Gadar 3. The actor is also set to reprise his patriotic avatar in Border 2. The anticipation multiplies as latest reports suggest that Varun Dhawan will join Deol in what is being described as one of the biggest war dramas in Bollywood history. This collaboration has captured the imagination of moviegoers and industry insiders alike, promising a blend of veteran prowess and youthful exuberance.
Anil Sharma spoke multiple times during his interview about the ongoing work on Gadar 3. He reiterated, “Gadar 3 ki katha pe kaam chal raha hai, pehle mai kehta tha ki jab mere pass emotions ka bomb aaega tab mai Gadar 2 banaunga aur ab mai kehta hu ki ab mere pass emotions ka atom bomb aaega tab mai Gadar 3 banaunga.” (The work on the story of Gadar 3 is underway. Earlier, I used to say that I would make Gadar 2 when I had an emotional “bomb” to share. Now, I say that I will make Gadar 3 when I have an emotional “atomic bomb” to share.)
The repetition of this powerful statement underscores the intensity and emotional gravity that Sharma intends to bring to the next installment of the franchise. It’s clear that he is committed to ensuring that Gadar 3 not only matches but surpasses the emotional and dramatic highs of its predecessor.
Sunny Deol’s recent activities underline his remarkable resurgence in the Bollywood landscape. With Gadar 3 on the horizon and Border 2 in the pipeline, the actor seems poised to deliver not just one, but two epic performances that will undoubtedly leave an indelible mark on cinema history.
In essence, as the curtains begin to lift on Gadar 3, the collective gaze of the Bollywood community and millions of fans is firmly fixed on what promises to be a riveting continuation of an already legendary saga. Anil Sharma’s cryptic yet evocative insights have spurred anticipation, ensuring that the journey from Gadar 2 to Gadar 3 will be eagerly followed and passionately discussed.
