The year 2023 was a blockbuster for Bollywood, marked by the immense success of Shahrukh Khan’s Pathan and another film that audiences had been eagerly waiting for over 22 years – Gadar 2. On August 11, 2023, Gadar 2, starring Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel, hit the theaters. Despite tough competition from Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2, Gadar 2 managed to set the box office on fire. The film not only became a massive hit but also broke several records, including the opening day box office record of ₹40.1 crore, surpassing the likes of Salman Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, and Shahrukh Khan.
The success of Gadar 2 reignited the trend of sequels in Bollywood, with fans eagerly awaiting part 2s and 3s of their favorite films. Now, fans are buzzing with excitement over the possibility of a third installment, Gadar 3. The film’s director, Anil Sharma, recently hinted at the potential sequel, stirring up even more anticipation.
Hints at Gadar 3?
The character of Tara Singh, portrayed by Sunny Deol, has become iconic over the years. His action-packed scenes, especially the unforgettable moment where he uproots a hand pump, have cemented his place in Bollywood history. With the overwhelming success of Gadar 2, fans are naturally clamoring for more. And director Anil Sharma seems to be on the same page. While discussing the future, Sharma hinted at the possibility of Gadar 3, saying, “When I get the atom bomb of emotions, then I will explode it.” Although he didn’t reveal any major details, Sharma’s statement has left fans hopeful.
Sharma also shared an emotional moment that occurred during the release of Gadar 2. He recalled how the film’s demand was so high that screenings were held as early as 3 a.m. His wife even showed him videos of the fans’ excitement, which moved him to tears. He said, “I called Sunny Sir and talked about it.” This emotional connection with the audience has further motivated Sharma to plan something even bigger for the next installment.
What Can Fans Expect from Gadar 3?
If Gadar 3 goes into production, it promises to be even bigger than its predecessor. Sharma hinted that the budget for the third part would be higher, ensuring that the film creates an even greater impact at the box office. Gadar 2 did an outstanding business of ₹689.2 crore worldwide, making it one of the highest-grossing Bollywood films. Sharma’s vision for Gadar 3 suggests that the sequel could aim to surpass this milestone.
Sunny Deol’s Upcoming Projects
Sunny Deol is currently one of the busiest actors in Bollywood. After the success of Gadar 2, he has several films lined up. Recently, he completed shooting for Lahore 1947, and soon he will begin work on Border 2, a sequel to another one of his iconic films. With so many projects in his pipeline, the possibility of Gadar 3 adds to the excitement surrounding Deol’s career.
Will Ameesha Patel Return?
One of the big questions surrounding Gadar 3 is whether Ameesha Patel, who played Sakina, will reprise her role. There have been rumors of tension between Patel and director Anil Sharma, which might complicate her return. While nothing has been confirmed yet, fans are hoping to see the iconic pair of Tara Singh and Sakina on the big screen once again.
As fans eagerly wait for more concrete news about Gadar 3, one thing is certain – the legacy of Gadar is far from over. With Sunny Deol ready to roar as Tara Singh once again and Anil Sharma hinting at explosive emotions in the sequel, Gadar 3 has the potential to create yet another Bollywood sensation.
