In an interview with Aaj Tak, Sunny Deol said, “I don’t believe so… Nowadays, technology facilitates people meeting through apps. Once they develop feelings for each other, they naturally want to meet and be together. Instead of criticising or concerning ourselves with such matters, we should respect their choices, as it’s their personal life. Whether it’s right or wrong is for them to decide.” READ MORE HERE.

Manish Wadhwa on Gadar 2 co-star Sunny Deol

In an interview with The Indian Express, Manish Wadhwa said, “Itna bhayankar change hai (It’s such an amazing change). One moment, he is standing with you talking so softly, and as soon as the director calls action, he is a different man. Sher aajata hai kahin se bilkul (He turns into a tiger). Sunny paaji is also so kind and generous and that side is so beautiful. I remember he had to hold my neck with anger in a scene. As soon as the shot was done, he came up and asked in Punjabi, ‘Lagi ta nahi.‘ He is the most caring co-star and so secure. He is not just bothered about his part but wants the entire team to do well to ensure the film does well. Similarly, Anil Sharma ji is also such a collaborative director, who would discuss, and ask for suggestions before filming. It was such an enlightening experience on the film’s set.” READ MORE HERE.
