KRK on Border 2
On Friday, Khan shared a review of Border 2 on X, formerly Twitter. He alleged that the director Anurag Singh prioritised Varun Dhawan over other lead actors, Ahaan Shetty and Diljit Dosanjh. The film was released on 23 January.
“Director #AnuragSingh considers #VarunDhawan a star And he decided to make him super star by #Border2 and that is his biggest mistake. He harms his film to make Varun super star, which can’t happen in this birth of @Varun_dvn! Anurag totally ignores Ahaan Shetty. He cuts role of @diljitdosanjh to give more footage to Varun. While Diljit is the best actor and soul of the film. Navy part is totally irrelevant, whether it is in the film or not. @iamsunnydeol has done fair job. #SonamBajwa is having only 4 scenes,” posted Khan.
