The third schedule of the highly anticipated film Border 2 has kickstarted at the iconic National Defence Academy, Pune. Diljit Dosanjh and Ahan Shetty have joined Sunny Deol and Varun Dhawan as the cast comes together to portray a grand chapter of valour and unity.
The production team — led by Producer Bhushan Kumar, Nidhi Dutta, Director Anurag Singh, Co-producer Shiv Chanana, and Binoy Gandhi — is working tirelessly to bring this saga of courage and brotherhood to life.
Border 2 promises to be an epic tale of patriotism and passion, showcasing the unwavering spirit of our armed forces. With its stellar cast and dedicated crew, the film is poised to deliver a monumental cinematic experience.
Backed by a powerful production team including Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, J.P.

This sequel continues the legacy of honouring the heroism and indomitable spirit of Indian soldiers, taking audiences on a spectacular journey of patriotism, courage, and sacrifice.
In a recent interview with Zoom, Suniel Shetty revealed that his son has been unfairly targeted after choosing to commit fully to Border 2. According to Suniel, negative articles were strategically planted to paint Ahan in a poor light for prioritising the war film over other projects.
'I have told Ahan one thing, iske aage filmein karo nahin karo, ye film mein jaan laga dena," Suniel told Zoom. 'Because this is the film that will keep you alive, it will keep your father alive for decades to come. 26 January and 15 August ko humein dekhoge hi dekhoge."
Suniel shared that Ahan had turned down multiple films to focus solely on Border 2, and that decision came with consequences. 'Ahan let go a lot of things for this film. Bohot saari cheezein uske haath se nikal gayi egos ke chakkar mein. He was removed from films and then blamed. Rumours were spread that he comes with expensive bodyguards, paid articles were published," he said.

Ed Sheeran reveals how Shah Rukh Khan pitched an idea for Sapphire music video: ‘We played for like three hours…'
Ed Sheeran's latest single 'Sapphire' dropped a couple of days ago, with an incredible music video that took the English artiste through the streets and beaches of India. The music video also featured actor Shah Rukh Khan and singer Arijit Singh, which added to the already prevalent Indian touch. In a recent video, Sheeran broke down the entire music video and talked about how his collaborations with Shah Rukh and Arijit came to be and his experience of shooting in India. Ed Sheeran dropped an behind-the-scenes video for 'Sapphire,' where he plays the entire music video on a projector and tells the story behind each shot. He begins with the shoot in Old Delhi and talks about swerving through spice dealers, traffic and cows while they got the shots they needed. 'All of us were wearing masks because of the strong smell of the spices, and at one point I took mine off and wondered, 'How bad could it be?' Instantaneously I was coughing my lungs out.' Sheeran also poked fun at himself filming on a beach, calling the shot his 'Chris Martin singing Yellow on the beach' impression. He then talked about shooting on the sets of Baahubali and professed his love for the same. 'That is a good movie; it is so epic,' said Sheeran before asking one of the crew members if he wanted to see the movie with him. From the sets of Baahubali, Sheeran moved to probably the most talked-about moment from his music video, which was the surprising cameo by Shah Rukh Khan. He revealed how the actor came up with the idea himself and is the only person he doesn't need to give context for because everyone knows him. Also Read | Ed Sheeran 'loves' Shah Rukh Khan and drinking coffee with Arijit Singh: 'These guys were some of the best…' Ed Sheeran said, 'He invited me round to his house to play paddle (presumably table tennis), and we played for like three hours, and then he pitched me an idea. I told him that I was there in Mumbai the next day as well, and we could have dinner together and then shoot the scene. So I recorded the Hindi lines for the song, which took some time. I came back, had dinner with him, and we shot his cameo.' Sheeran can be seen hugging Shah Rukh right after the shot. The singer then moved on to his adventures in Kolkata, where he met up with singer Arijit Singh in his hometown. In the video, Arijit and Sheeran can be seen riding around on a scooter as Sheeran exclaims, 'This is new,' to which Arijit replies, 'This is madness.' As the video continues, there is a clip of Arijit telling Sheeran that they have arranged a boat ride for him so that he can check out the river. Sheeran shared that he had his dad with him as well, and sailing through the river is 'one of the most memorable' memories he has with his dad. He also appreciated all the Indian musicians who played on the record and called them all 'phenomenal'. Other than that, he shared some pictures of himself playing football with kids in Shillong. 'Sapphire' is part of Ed Sheeran's upcoming album Play, which will be his eighth studio album. It is due for release on September 12.

Chitrangda Singh on dusky skin, curves and how bollywood is finally getting real: 'People no longer idolize the size-zero body'
Chitrangda Singh Chitrangda Singh , who exudes elegance and effortless beauty, recently opened up on how the Bollywood industry is gradually but definitely leaving behind the strait laced and westernized standards of beauty. In an interview, the actress expressed her perception of how both cinema and society are changing on embracing brown skin, desi origins and fuller bodies over old ideals such as size zero. A viewer-driven shift fueled by real women In conversation with Bollywood Bubble, she reflected on today's environment. Singh pointed out that the change hasn't just come from within the industry but it's the audience that has pushed Bollywood to think differently. 'You walk into any college campus now,' she said and you'll see girls owning their size, flaunting their personal style, and proudly staying connected to their roots whether that means draping a saree or speaking their native language. She feels this confidence has crept into our movies as well. It's a change that isn't merely skin-deep and it indicates the profound impact of women becoming independent, powerful decision-makers not only in life but also in the box office. Brown is beautiful Chitrangda emphasized how Indians today are no longer in a rush to mimic the West. 'We're celebrating our food, our traditions, our language and yes, even our skin colour,' she noted. With a globalized outlook and increasing exposure there's growing pride in embracing the richness of Indian identity both on-screen and off. As she aptly said, cinema reflects society. And when women take center stage, turning up in greater numbers as audience and creators, there's finally room to rejoice authentic Indian beauty with curves and dusky complexions. Letting go of size-zero dreams Maybe the most invigorating insight gained from the interview was Singh's outspoken position on body image. "People no longer idolize the size-zero body," she explained by elaborating on how it's liberating to watch actresses and film-goers embracing naturally curvaceous Indian figures. Having acted in movies such as 'Desi Boyz,' 'Baazaar,' 'Gaslight' and the shows 'Modern Love' 'Mumbai and Khakee: The Bengal Chapter,' Chitrangda has witnessed first-hand how far things have come. And she's happy to see the celebration of "brown and beautiful" is no longer a dream but a tangible reality in Bollywood.
