Co-producer Nidhi Dutta added, “Border 2 is not just a film—it’s a heartfelt tribute. Every creative choice, from casting to storytelling, is guided by that emotion. Medha’s pairing with Varun Dhawan adds a sincere, refreshing energy that matches the soul of the project.”

Set amidst themes of bravery, sacrifice, and patriotism, Border 2 is shaping up to be a stirring, high-stakes cinematic experience.
