’Gadar 2’ team arranges special screening for President Droupadi Murmu

Sunny Deol has made a triumphant return to the silver screen with a spectacular comeback. His action-packed film 'Gadar 2' has created a sensation at the box office.

The sequel to his 2001 blockbuster, 'Gadar 2', has made an astonishing ₹40 crore on its opening day in cinemas, according to trade analyst Taran Adarsh. This achievement ranks it as the second-best opening of 2023, trailing only Shah Rukh Khan's 'Pathaan'.

As reported by India Today, it was recently revealed that a special screening of the movie will be arranged for the President of India.

According to a statement made by Anil Sharma in an interview with India Today, it has been revealed that a distinctive showing of 'Gadar 2' has been requested by the President's office for the President of India, Droupadi Murmu. The creators of the film have made arrangements for this special screening, which is scheduled to take place on Sunday, August 13, 2023, in New Delhi.

"Yesterday, we received a call from the censor board. They informed us that the President wishes to watch our film. We feel honoured and thrilled that 'Gadar 2' has garnered such recognition. The screening is scheduled for Sunday, and the entire team is overjoyed."

Coupled with the iconic hand pump symbolism, the movie delved into the enduring legacy of Tara Singh and Sakeena. It unravelled against the backdrop of the turbulent 'Crush India Movement' of 1971, narrating Tara Singh's courageous journey to Pakistan to rescue his son, Charan Jeet Singh (portrayed by Utkarsh Sharma), from the clutches of the Pakistani Army.

Under the directorship of Anil Sharma, the cast of the film includes Sunny Deol, Ameesha Patel, and Utkarsh Sharma in pivotal roles. Ahead of the official online teaser launch, the film's creators chose to premiere the teaser alongside the re-release of 'Gadar: Ek Prem Katha' in theatres on June 9th.
