On the professional front, Varun Dhawan is preparing for the release of 'Border 2', a sequel to the 1997 war epic that depicted the Battle of Longewala during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. The film, directed by Anurag Singh, features a strong cast including Sunny Deol, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahaan Shetty. Set to be released on January 23, 2026, 'Border 2' aims to continue the legacy of its predecessor while delivering an impressive cinematic experience.
