Last year, speaking on The Ranveer Show, Sunny had said, “Sunne toh mujhe bhi aaya hai” (I’ve also heard that they’re making Border 2) (laughs). Ye hum bahut pehle karne wale the… 2015 mein. Par phir meri picture nahi chali, toh log ghabra ke nahi banana chah rahe. Ab sab bol rahe hain humey karni hai. (We were meant to start it a lot earlier, in 2015. But then my film flopped, so people were scared to make it then. Now, everyone wants to make it).”
