Border 2 Faces Gulf Ban Ahead of Release, Earnings Expected to Take a Hit
- •Sunny Deol's 'Border 2' is slated for a January 23, 2026 release as a sequel to the 1997 blockbuster 'Border'.
- •The film has reportedly not received approval for release in several Gulf countries, including UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman.
- •The ban is attributed to the film's alleged 'anti-Pakistan' content, a common reason for restrictions in the region.
- •This situation mirrors Ranveer Singh's 'Dhruvandhar' and Sunny Deol's 'Gadar 2', which also faced Gulf bans.
- •Despite potential overseas losses, makers hope 'Border 2' will perform strongly in India, with a projected 30-40 crore opening day.
Why It Matters: Border 2 faces a significant setback with a Gulf ban due to 'anti-Pakistan' content, impacting its global earnings.
