Gadar 2
Gadar 2, the sequel to the acclaimed 2001 film Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, which starred Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel in the key roles, has arrived in theatres and is presently garnering substantial attention thanks to its exceptional box office performance. The character of Jeetey, the son of Tara Singh and Sakina, who are now adults, is played by Utkarsh Sharma in a prominent role. The film’s main plot is around Tara Singh’s tenacious attempts to rescue his son Charanjeet from the Pakistani army’s grasp when he is captured by them. It is set against the backdrop of the ‘Crush India’ programme in 1971. Gadar 2 also has the well-known songs Udd Jaa Kaale Kaava and Main Nikla Gaddi Leke from the 2001 original. The movie has now made more than Rs 200 crore.
