Actor
Varun Dhawan spoke about the emotional connection of the song 'Ghar Kab Aaoge' from 'Border 2', saying it resonates with the entire country and carries a strong message for the youth about the courage and sacrifices of the Indian Armed Forces.
Speaking to ANI, Dhawan said the song carries deep emotions not just for the film's team but for the entire country. He said launching the track at Longewala, where 'Border' was shot, made the moment even more special.
"It is a very emotional song for us, for the whole country. So it felt very good to launch it here in Jaisalmer and in Longewala, where 'Border' was shot," Dhawan said, urging audiences to watch 'Border 2' when it releases on January 23.
Reflecting on his long-standing desire to portray a man in uniform, Dhawan credited Sunny Deol's iconic role in Border for inspiring his admiration for the armed forces.
"As Sunny sir has said that he watched Haqeeqat as a kid and wanted to do a film about the armed forces, similarly, as a child, I watched 'Border' and had the wish in my heart to play a man in uniform - someone from the armed forces. It's all because of Sunny, sir," he said.
Varun shared that films like 'Border' shaped the patriotic spirit of an entire generation and instilled pride in the country's military strength.
The actor said he never imagined he would one day be part of 'Border 2' or associated with the song 'Ghar Kab Aaoge'. "I had never, even in my wildest dreams, imagined that I would be a part of this song, 'Ghar Kab Aaoge' or that I would be a part of 'Border 2' as a leading man."
Referring to the current national sentiment, Dhawan said films like 'Border 2' are important for young people to understand the bravery and sacrifices of the armed forces.
