indian movie sunny deol full movie 1997 border

I’ve always respected our armed forces, but Border made me relate to them and respect them more with pride. I grew with the civilian perspective of the 1971 war but being a part of Border introduced me to the realities of the war from the Army perspective. I remember the sound of the sirens and then, the fighter planes taking off. I was 14 years old at the time of the war. How aware were you about the 1971 war, and what more did the film teach you about it? What made you say a ‘yes’ to the role?īorder never needed a reason for me to say yes.

While I did not have to do any special preparation to play Major Kuldeep (now retired as Brigadier Kuldeep Singh Chandpuri), what I did was, live in the moment, and be a proud Indian. However, Border will always be different as it is a film depicting the realities of the war in its truest essence. Playing an army officer, police, or a spy, living a life dedicated to our country is always special. Was the feeling/preparation any different? But, Border depicted a real incident, and you portrayed a real-life hero on screen. You’ve been seen as a member of the armed forces in several films. As the film completes two decades since release, Deol recalls being part of the multi-starrer, based on true events from the Indo-Pakistan war of 1971. His loud and clear voice, dignified gait and undying love for the country stays in the mind for long, every time one watches the 1997 blockbuster. Sunny Deol’s character - Major Kuldeep Singh Chandpuri - in Border, remains close to the actor’s heart.
