On June 13, as Border (1997) completed 27 years of release, Sunny Deol announced its sequel, to be helmed by Anurag Singh. This came after weeks of rumours that suggested that Deol and Ayushmann Khurrana would lead Border 2. However, now, mid-day has learnt that following months-long talks with the makers, Khurrana has apparently decided to let go of the war drama. “Ayushmann was in talks to play a soldier in the sequel. While both Ayushmann and the makers were keen on collaborating, the actor felt unsure of his positioning in an ensemble led by Sunny, a towering star in his own right,” says a source.  JP Dutta, who helmed Border—starring Deol, Suniel Shetty, Akshaye Khanna and Jackie Shroff—will co-produce the sequel. It appears that director Singh is keen to make Border 2 just as star-studded. Recently, rumours were rife that the war drama would also star Punjabi actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh. The source adds, “Nothing is confirmed yet. But Diljit has been approached by the makers. It will be a treat to see Diljit and …

Prakash Padukone (1980) and Pullela Gopichand (2001) are the only ones from India to have claimed the title with Saina Nehwal (2015) and Lakshya Sen (2022) coming close when they finished runner-ups. The prestigious tournament holds an iconic status in India but over the years, its exclusivity has somewhat dwindled as it is now one of the four Super 1000 event on the international calendar. Satwik and Chirag have already won a Super 1000 title in Indonesia last year and given their stellar run this season, expectations would be high when the two towering shuttlers take the court this week, following their exploits at Paris on Sunday night. Satwik and Chirag, the Asian Games champions, have bossed their opponents this season, reaching three finals — Malaysia Super 1000, …
