The post quickly went viral. Fans showered love and birthday wishes, while others debated if Gabru would match the success of Gadar 2. The film is slated for a theatrical release on March 13, 2026.
Netizens Have Mixed Reactions
While many praised Sunny’s energy and comeback, some social media users criticised his choice of project. One user commented, “Sunny Deol phir galti kr rha h Gadar 1 k baad wali… 800 cr Gadar 2 dene k baad phir chillar film kr rha h.” Another wrote, “Looks like the extension of Jaat.”
A third user declared it “flopped before release.” One more said, “Aisi film suit nahi karti.” But loyal fans stood by him, saying Sunny’s raw intensity and sincerity always make his films worth watching.
Sunny also shared a video from his birthday celebration with his family. He was seen enjoying fireworks and smiling with his loved ones. Sharing the clip, he wrote, “Happy birthday to me.”
Sunny’s father, Dharmendra, shared a funny memory from Sunny’s childhood on The RKB Show. He said, “Once I had slapped Sunny. He was small at that time, and I had gotten him a shotgun, and he had broken all the windows of the neighbour’s house. That was the only time I slapped him, but I kept calling back at home to ask how he is after going to the studio.”
