Meanwhile, as Border 2 has hit the theatres today, Suniel Shetty has penned a special note and wrote, "My Sun, today I must tell you that for me, Border was never just a film I acted in. It became a responsibility I carried long after the cameras stopped rolling. Years later, watching you wear the uniform brings it full circle - not as nostalgia, but as a reminder. Of discipline. Sacrifice. Silence. Courage. Tis film isn't about glory. This film isn't about war. It's a reminder of why peace exists. A border isn't where the country ends - it's where courage begins. And some stories don't stay on screen - they stay in the spine of a nation. May we never forget what that uniform truly stands for. Jai Hind. Jai Bharat".
