Briefing the media on Sunday, the Indian Armed Forces said, “I pay my solemn homage to my five fallen colleagues and brothers from the armed forces and civilians who have tragically lost their lives in Operation Sindoor.”
On the work front, the reports claim that Varun will play the role of the Param Vir Chakra awardee Major Hoshiar Singh Dahiya in “Border 2”, who displayed immense courage during the Indo-Pak war, 1971. However, nothing has been announced yet.
Helmed by Anurag Singh, the project will feature Sunny Deol, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty in key roles.
“Border 2”, which is a sequel to the 1997 war drama “Border” is expected to be inspired by the 1999 Kargil War between India and Pakistan.

Additionally, Varun will be reuniting with his ‘Bawaal’ co-star Janhvi Kapoor in Shashank Khaitan’s “Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.”
