A little less than two months, Sunny Deol's "Border 2" has an official streaming release date. Netflix India has announced that the blockbuster war action drama, directed by Anurag Singh, and co-stars Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty in lead roles, is slated to begin streaming from March 20.
In its review of the sequel, THE WEEK said the sequel is not connected to the first film, except for its leading man Deol, playing a different character. It further added, "In today's political climate where nationalism tends to sell easily, it would have been easy for the makers of Border 2 to take that route, especially with the legacy of Border as solid ammunition. Singh, who has also co-written the screenplay with Sumit Arora, ensures the patriotism flavour remains at the forefront without compromising on his conviction in the narration."
The review also praised Varun Dhawan's performance, adding that he gets the "meatiest of the introduction sequences and arguably the strongest character arc of the four. In the days leading upto the film's release, Dhawan was the target of social media trolls after the Border 2 promos were aired. Surprisingly, Dhawan's performance is the biggest surprise package of Border 2 and he puts in a beautifully restrained performance. Deol, meanwhile, gets a role that he revels in. The fierce leader who roars (literally and figuratively) against the opposition, Deol's energy is infectious and each of his pep talks to his soldiers pack a solid punch."
Made for a reported budget of Rs 275 cr, "Border 2" collected a total of nearly Rs 490 cr worldwide. It's the highest-grossing Hindi movie of 2026 and the 18th highest-grossing Hindi movie of all time.
