What Sunny Deol mentioned
In the interview with BBC Asian Network, Sunny was requested to touch upon the criticism that Gadar 2 is an anti-Pakistan movie. The actor mentioned, “See, it’s basically a political thing mostly. It’s not actually the people, genuine people, because at end of the day, it’s all humanity there. Whether it’s here or there (Pakistan), everyone’s together. And even you’ll see that throughout the film (Gadar 2), I never run anybody down, because I don’t believe in running people down or anything and Tara Singh (his character in Gadar 2) is not that kind of a person.”
On the politics of Gadar 2
When Sunny was additional informed in regards to the launch of Gadar 2 throughout a ‘politically tense local weather’ and requested to touch upon the imagery of the antagonist (a Pakistani) within the movie, the actor mentioned, “We all want peace, you know, and nobody wants all this thing to happen. But it’s high time the politicians started seeing the world not from [the point of view of votes] because everybody does it for the sake of votes… Don’t take this film so seriously… cinema comes in for entertainment. It’s not coming from any other point of view. And then obviously, there’s an exaggeration in cinema because that’s how you want the characters to be. If they’re not exaggerated, you don’t enjoy it. Because if a person is bad, you want to say no, he is bad. If a person is good, you want to see the person good. And that’s a certain sector of cinema.”
