Meanwhile, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap told Bollywood Hungama in an interview that while he hasn’t seen Gadar 2, he can see why it’s such a smash hit with audiences. He went on to say that the film’s marketing campaign cleverly linked with consumers’ cherished recollections of Gadar.
Kashyap, famed for films such as Gangs of Wasseypur and Kennedy, also stated that the original film was followed by Aamir Khan’s Lagaan and Farhan Akhtar’s Dil Chahta Hai. He stated that Gadar was far more successful than these two films and had the highest attendance. “When I say the marketing is so good, I mean that it has recreated Gadar’s nostalgia.” “The entire marketing campaign for Gadar 2 was Gadar 1,” the director told the entertainment website.
Gadar 2 is the sequel to the 2001 film Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, which was co-produced by Zee Studios and Anil Sharma Productions. Tara Singh travels to Pakistan in 1971 to save his son Charanjeet Singh from the hands of the Pakistani Army. Sunny Deol, Ameesha Patel, Manish Wadhwa, Simrat Kaur, Luv Sinha, and Gaurav Chopra play pivotal parts in the film.
