Gadar 2 is one of the biggest successes for Bollywood ever. After Pathaan, Gadar 2 became the Hindi film to gross over Rs 400 crore at the domestic box office. It is now close to the Rs 500 crore mark. This is huge considering the budget of the film was only Rs 120 crore. In fact, director Anil Sharma said that Sunny Deol took a pay cut for the film. Now the producers are planning to give him a hefty amount from the profit. While many critics said the film’s anti-Pakistan sentiments were overt and lacked subtlety, the masses applauded it. Sunny Deol’s machismo, emotions and songs stuck with the general public of India. Also Read – When Gadar 2 star Sunny Deol was slapped hard by father Dharmendra for THIS reason

Anurag Kashyap told Bollywood Hungama that he is yet to watch the Sunny Deol patriotic actioner. But he can understand why he’s so smitten. He said that the marketing of Gadar 2 has tapped well into the nostalgia of the 2001 hit. In fact, Gadar clashed with Lagaan and Dil Chahta Hai. The film made more money than two of them.
