London Round 15 Race Highlights: Cassidy's Charge & Late Drama
In an interview, veteran producer-director Suneel Darshan described his professional equation with actor Sunny Deol as the 'darkest chapter' of his career. Darshan revealed the collaboration began with promise—starting with films like 'Inteqam' and 'Lootere'—but later turned 'nightmarish,' involving alleged emotional manipulation. He claims Sunny took money for a project that never materialised and described working with him as 'like indulging a little child.' Despite the trauma, Darshan maintained respect for the Deol family and refused to blame Dharmendra. While he appreciated working with Akshay Kumar, Darshan said the unresolved dispute with Sunny still weighs on him—and that he believes in divine justice.

Gadar 2 Director Reveals Most Challenging Part Of Sunny Deol Starrer: ‘Spent Lot Of Time…'
Last Updated: As Gadar 2 starring Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel completed 2 years, filmmaker Anil Sharma revealed what was the best and the most challenging part of making the film. Filmmaker Anil Sharma's period action drama, 'Gadar 2" starring Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel, completed two years of release on Monday. During an exclusive conversation with IANS, the director shared the best part of the sequel, according to him. Speaking to IANS, Anil said: 'One of the best parts was seeing Utkarsh (Sharma), who played the child in Gadar 1, return as an adult in Gadar 2. I think this might be the first time in the world where the child actor grew up and reprised the same role." Revealing the most challenging part of making the film, he added: 'For me, the challenge was to find a way to move the story forward from Gadar 1. We spent a lot of time thinking about it. But when the story finally came together, it was worth the wait." The filmmaker was asked if the success of Gadar raised his expectations for the sequel. To this, Anil reacted by saying that 'Gadar" became a part of the audience's heart, and for the last two decades, everyone kept asking him why he hadn't made 'Gadar 2". 'I knew the love for the characters was immense. So, I had full faith in the film's success. In fact, I had already predicted it—sending an email to Zee even before the release that it would make 500 crores. And thankfully, God listened," he added. Reflecting on the massive success of 'Gadar 2", Anil shared that the connection between Tara, Jeeta, and Sakina remains etched in people's hearts, which is why the film continues to be memorable. 'The love people have for these characters makes it a legacy in itself", the director added. Spilling his plans for Gadar 3, Anil revealed that they are definitely working on it. 'The story will continue. The success of both Gadar 1 and Gadar 2 shows that the story and characters have a special place in people's hearts, and this will carry on in part three," he concluded.
