After the monumental success of “Gadar 2” and the announcement of “Border 2,” Bollywood icon Sunny Deol is showing no signs of slowing down. In a stunning revelation, the veteran actor has confirmed his next project, which promises to be the “biggest action film of the country.” This upcoming film is helmed by popular Telugu director Gopichand Malineni and is under the production banner Mythri Movie Makers. The film has been tentatively titled “SDGM.”
The announcement came on Thursday when Mythri Movie Makers took to social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter) to declare the news. The tweet read, “Make way for the biggest action film of the country – #SDGM. Starring Action Superstar @iamsunnydeol. Directed by @megopichand. Produced by @MythriOfficial and @peoplemediafcy.” This proclamation has created a wave of excitement among fans and the film industry alike.
The tweet further added, “MASS FEAST LOADING! Shoot begins soon. @MusicThaman @RishiPunjabi5 @artkolla.” Additionally, the news was complemented by a customary pooja ceremony, marking an auspicious start to the film’s journey.
On the same day, Sunny Deol took to Instagram to share the announcement with his followers, echoing the same enthusiasm and anticipation. This collaborative venture is particularly noteworthy as it connects Sunny Deol with Gopichand Malineni, a filmmaker predominantly known for his work in Telugu cinema.
Gopichand Malineni made his directorial debut in 2010 with the action-comedy film “Don Seenu.” Over the years, he has built a reputable portfolio with successful films such as “Bodyguard,” “Balupu,” “Pandaga Chesko,” “Winner,” and the high-octane “Krack.” Malineni’s directorial style is well-appreciated for its unique blend of action sequences and gripping storytelling, making him a suitable partner for an action-heavy project with Deol.
Sunny Deol, whose real name is Ajay Singh Deol, has had a stellar career in Bollywood spanning over three decades. He has made headlines with several iconic performances in action-packed films like “Ghayal,” “Damini,” “Jeet,” and of course, the cult classic “Gadar: Ek Prem Katha.
.” The sequel, “Gadar 2,” released last year, shattered multiple box office records and amassed over Rs 600 crore in revenues. The film’s triumph cemented Deol’s status as a bankable action star.
Following the success of “Gadar 2,” Sunny Deol kept the momentum going by announcing “Border 2.” This sequel carries the legacy forward from the 1997 classic “Border,” which also enjoyed immense popularity and critical acclaim. The actor’s consistent performance and choice of roles have reaffirmed his commitment to delivering quality cinema to his audience.
Apart from “SDGM” and “Border 2,” Sunny Deol has an impressive lineup of projects. He is set to appear in “Lahore 1947,” a period drama directed by Rajkumar Santoshi. This film will feature a stellar cast including Preity Zinta and Ali Fazal. Notably, Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan is taking on the role of producer for this project through his production house, Aamir Khan Productions.
Another film on Deol’s slate is “Soorya,” a crime drama that commenced shooting in 2022. Reports suggest that Deol intends to wrap up production for “Soorya” by November this year, post which he will dedicate his time to “Border 2.”
Sunny Deol’s enduring appeal and box office dominance demonstrate his remarkable ability to adapt and thrive in the ever-evolving landscape of Indian cinema. His upcoming projects, particularly “SDGM,” have set high expectations among his fans and critics alike.
Sunny’s ability to pick diverse roles and his collaboration with renowned directors make his filmography an exciting list to look forward to. It remains to be seen how Gopichand Malineni’s directorial perspective and Sunny Deol’s unparalleled action prowess translate on the silver screen in “SDGM.” With shoot schedules expected to commence soon, fans won’t have to wait long to witness the magic unfold.
As the star continues to reinvent himself and take on new challenges, one thing is clear: Sunny Deol is undeniably on a roll, and the best is yet to come.
