Dhurandhar has not slowed down even weeks after its December 5 release. The Ranveer Singh-led action thriller emerged as one of the biggest Bollywood successes of the year and ended with a gripping cliffhanger. Since then, audience attention has firmly shifted to its sequel, Dhurandhar 2.

Fans have been closely following every update related to the film. Recently, rumours claimed that the teaser of Dhurandhar 2 would be attached to Border 2, which released in theatres today. However, viewers didn’t find the teaser there. Just around the same time, a fresh update was shared by director Aditya Dhar himself.

Dhurandhar 2 Teaser Update Leaves Fans Guessing

On Friday morning, Aditya Dhar replied to a fan on Instagram who asked him to release the teaser soon. The fan commented, “@adityadharfilms mazak nhi teaser jaldi!” Reacting with a laughing emoji, the filmmaker replied, “Teaser will be out in a few days!”

Although he did not share a specific release date, his reply was enough to excite fans. Screenshots of his post quickly surfaced on Reddit and other social media platforms. Soon after, users began guessing that the Dhurandhar Part 2 teaser might drop on January 26, during Republic Day.

Read some user comments below:
“Should have come with Border 2 and mogged their aura.”
“That’s 26th, I guess.”
“26 jan ko ayega lagta hai.”
“Have never waited for any movie or series this crazily.”
“Never seen a teaser causing this much anticipation and excitement!”

What To Expect From Ranveer Singh Starrer Sequel

According to a Bollywood Hungama report, Aditya Dhar has reworked the end-credit sequence of Dhurandhar and shaped it into a teaser for the sequel. The report also states that the full trailer of Dhurandhar 2 is likely to be released towards the end of February. The film is confirmed for an Eid 2026 release.

Another major talking point is the film’s box office clash. Dhurandhar Part 2 is scheduled to release on March 19, 2026, the same day as Yash’s Toxic. Despite speculation about a possible delay, Aditya Dhar has confirmed that Dhurandhar 2 will arrive in cinemas as planned. The makers of Toxic, KVN Productions (also backing Thalapathy Vijay’s delayed Jana Nayagan), have also stood firm on their release date.

Called Dhurandhar 2 – Revenge, the sequel will continue the story from the first film’s cliffhanger. It is expected to explore more about Jaskirat Singh Rangi’s past, tracing his transformation into the underworld figure Hamza Ali Mazari. Ranveer Singh reprises the role, while Arjun Rampal returns as Major Iqbal.

Directed by Aditya Dhar, the first film featured Sara Arjun, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R Madhavan, Gaurav Gera, Rakesh Bedi, Danish Pandor and others.

SEBI: The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has accused 19 former and current executives at the local units of Advent International, Carlyle Group, Ernst & Young (EY) and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) among others, of breaching the rules of insider trading during a Yes Bank stake sale in 2022.

SEBI Notice Content

A SEBI notice that was issued in November 2025 revealed that two executives at Ernst & Young and PricewaterhouseCoopers, five other family members and friends made unlawful trading gains in Yes Bank shares before a stake sale.

Unpublished price-sensitive information was shared by Carlyle Group, Advent International, PwC and EY executives that enabled many to trade on the basis of it. A former member of Yes Bank was also accused by SEBI of sharing sensitive information helping others to trade.

The SEBI notice follows its investigation in the shares of Yes Bank before the sale of shares. Advent and Carlyle purchased a combined stake of 10 percent for $1.1 billion. The shares of Yes Bank opened 6 percent higher a day after announcement of a deal was made.

Response Of Accused Individuals And Companies

The accused individuals and companies are now drafting their response to the notice of the Securities and Exchange Board of India.

A show cause notice is the first step of SEBI after the completion of a probe. If upheld, the 19 people named in the notice could face possible monetary penalties and/or limitations under Indian securities regulations.

Seven of the accused traded on the basis of privileged information while 4 shared that information. Eight EY and PwC executives were named for weak compliance processes.

EY was hired by Advent for tax advisory services and its feedback was sought on the management of Yes Bank. Separately, Ernst & Young was engaged by Yes Bank for conducting valuation work. PwC around the same time was hired by Advent and Carlyle for due diligence and tax planning.

Narendra Modi: Prime Minister Launches SVANidhi Credit Card For Street Vendors’ Financial Inclusion, 3 Amrit Bharat Gets The Green Flag

Narendra Modi: Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has launched the PM SVANidhi Credit Card, a transformative step for the financial inclusion of street vendors. Modi also flagged off three Amrit Bharat trains and one passenger train.

SVANidhi Credit Card Launch

PM Modi introduced the UPI-linked RuPay SVANidhi Credit Card under the revamped PM SVANidhi scheme. It would empower millions of urban vendors with digital tools and interest-free credit, promising enhanced livelihoods and economic stability for this vital segment of India’s informal economy.

The card would help street vendors who repaid their second loan tranche on time, offering interest-free and revolving credit up to Rs. 50,000 across tranches – Rs. 15,000 first, Rs. 25,000 second and Rs. 50,000 third. Vendors would gain cashback incentives – up to Rs 1,200 yearly (Rs 100 monthly) for digital transactions, promoting Unified Payments Interface (UPI) adoption and reducing cash dependency. This fosters financial literacy and builds credit history for future loans.

Beyond credit, the card links vendors to skill training, FSSAI hygiene programs and entrepreneurship development. It creates identity cards, profiling 46 lakh beneficiaries for 1.38 crore welfare sanctions, ensuring saturation coverage. This inclusion drives socio-economic upliftment, transitioning informal hawkers to micro-entrepreneurs. Women and marginalized vendors benefit most, with 67 percent repayment rates proving sustainability.

​PM Modi also disbursed loans to one lakh beneficiaries from Kerala, emphasizing formal recognition for street vendors and hawkers who were previously excluded from India’s banking systems.

The scheme, extended to 2030 with Rs. 7,332 crore outlay, aims to reach 1.15 crore vendors, including 50 lakh new ones. It integrates credit with welfare linkages like Jan Dhan, insurance and Ujjwala via ‘SVANidhi se Samriddhi’ melas.

Amrit Bharat Train Flag-Off

PM Modi flagged three Amrit Bharat trains: Thiruvananthapuram Central to Tambaram, Nagercoil Junction to Mangaluru Junction and Thiruvananthapuram North to Charlapall. These passenger-friendly and modern trains align with PM Modi’s Viksit Bharat 2047 vision, enhancing travel for vendors and daily commuters.

Republic Day 2026 Alert: Big Update on Delhi Metro! Services to Remain Shut at THESE 6 Stations on Jan 23 and 26, Check Running Schedule

Republic- Day- 2026
Google

Delhi Metro Announces Security-Led Changes Ahead of Republic Day: The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has issued an advisory detailing changes to metro operations on January 23 and January 26 due to heightened security arrangements for the Republic Day full rehearsal and the 77th Republic Day celebrations.

Six Metro Stations With Entry and Exit Restrictions

According to the DMRC advisory, entry and exit at specific metro station gates will remain temporarily closed from 3 am until the conclusion of the official programme on both dates. This does not mean a full station shutdown, but certain gates will be inaccessible. 

Affected stations include:

  • Central Secretariat (Gates 3 and 4)
  • Udyog Bhawan (Gate 1)
  • Lal Quila (Gates 3 and 4)
  • Jama Masjid (Gates 3 and 4)
  • Delhi Gate (Gates 1, 4, 5)
  • ITO (Gates 3, 4, 6)

Commuters are advised to use other gates at the same stations if available, and plan journeys ahead to avoid last-minute inconvenience. 

Services Will Still Run Across the Network

Despite the gate restrictions, metro trains will continue to operate across the rest of the network as per schedule, subject to ongoing security requirements. DMRC has stressed that only selected gates are affected. 

This approach aims to ensure smooth crowd management and safety while allowing lakhs of passengers to travel during the Republic Day period. Security personnel will be deployed at these key stations to guide commuters. 

Tips for Commuters During Republic Day Weekend

  • Expect early-morning travel adjustments on both January 23 and January 26.
  • Follow official DMRC announcements and social media updates.
  • Allow extra time for journeys if your route includes Central Delhi areas near Kartavya Path. 

Motorola Signature Brings Luxury to Android With Fabric Finish, IP69 Rating & 165Hz AMOLED

Motorola Signature
Google

Motorola Signature Pushes Android Into Luxury Territory: Motorola is redefining premium smartphone design with its new Signature lineup, blending luxury aesthetics with high-end performance. The latest offering focuses on craftsmanship, durability and display quality, targeting users who want more than just raw specifications.

By combining a fabric finish body with advanced hardware features, Motorola Signature positions itself as a lifestyle-driven Android experience rather than a conventional flagship.

Fabric Finish Design Sets It Apart

One of the standout elements of the Motorola Signature is its fabric finish back panel. Unlike glass or metal designs, the textured surface offers a warmer, more tactile feel while also improving grip.

The design choice reflects a growing trend of premium personalisation in smartphones, appealing to users who value distinctive looks alongside functionality.

IP69 Rating Enhances Durability

The device comes with an IP69 rating, making it resistant to dust, high-pressure water jets and extreme environmental exposure. This level of protection goes beyond standard flagship ratings and positions the phone as suitable for demanding conditions without compromising style.

For users seeking durability without rugged aesthetics, this feature adds significant value.

165Hz AMOLED Display for Smooth Performance

Motorola Signature features a high refresh rate 165Hz AMOLED display designed for fluid scrolling, gaming and media consumption. The panel delivers rich colours, deep contrast and responsive touch performance.

This display specification places the phone firmly in the premium Android segment, especially for users who prioritise visual smoothness and immersive viewing.

Premium Experience Beyond Specifications

Beyond hardware, Motorola Signature reflects a shift toward experiential luxury in Android devices. The focus on materials, finish and display quality signals Motorola’s intent to compete in a space traditionally dominated by ultra premium smartphones.

Industry observers note that this approach could appeal strongly to users looking for exclusivity without leaving the Android ecosystem.

The 50 Contestants List: The upcoming reality show The 50 is slowly building excitement as more celebrities confirm their participation. Set to premiere on February 1 (on Colors TV and JioHotstar), the show promises drama, strategy and high-stakes gameplay.

After Bhojpuri actress Neelam Giri announced her entry earlier, popular Haryanvi singer and Bigg Boss 11 fame Sapna Choudhary has now officially joined the contestant list.

Hosted by filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan, The 50 is the Indian adaptation of the international format Les Cinquante. The show brings together 50 celebrities from different backgrounds and places them inside a grand “mahal” on Mumbai’s Madh Island. With no fixed rules, the competition focuses on survival, mind games and shifting alliances under the watchful eye of a mysterious figure called THE LION.

The 50 Contestants List: Sapna Choudhary Confirms Participation

Sapna Choudhary confirmed her participation by sharing a video on her official Instagram handle. In the clip, a masked man arrives at her doorstep, leaves a card and quietly walks away. Sapna later opens the door, finds the card and reads out the invitation on camera.

She then says, “Itni khush hoon ki main bata bhi nahi sakti ki main kitni khush hoon, kyunki mere ko aaya hai Lion ke mahal par invitation. Toh aap abhi tak toh samajh hi gaye honge ki main ja rahi hoon India ke biggest reality show The Fifty mein, jo aayega 1 February se Jio Hotstar aur Colors par.”

Donald Trump: US Warned of Misadventure! IRGC Has Finger On The Trigger, Would Not Tolerate US And Israel’s Misadventure

Donald Trump: General Mohammad Pakpour, the commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, has issued a stern warning to the United States and Israel to avoid any form of misadventure. Pakpour added that Israel and USA should learn from historical experiences of what they faced during the 12-day imposed war. The IRGC Commander added Iran has its finger on the trigger, ready to carry out the orders of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Donald Trump Issues Warning

Donald Trump has warned Iran that US naval “Armada” was progressing towards the Gulf. The US President said the prospect of an imminent military action could not be ruled out.

Last week, US media reported that USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group has been asked to perform manoeuvres in the South China Sea. The US President told reporters on Air Force One that the United States is watching the Islamic Republic of Iran.

He went on to reiterate that his threat to use sizeable force against Iran resulted in a stoppage of 837 protestor hangings. The US President said he was open to the idea of having discussions with Tehran.

On Wednesday, Iranian authorities provided their first official toll from the nationwide protests. It was added that 3,117 people were killed though many rights groups claimed that the number of casualties could be much higher. Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, the NGO Iran Human Rights director, said the real count of protestors who died is much higher than the official figures provided by the Iranian government.

IGCR is sanctioned by many countries including the United States, Australia and Canada as a terrorist entity.

Joint Command Headquarters’ General Issues Warning

General Ali Abdollahi Aliabadi who leads the joint command headquarters in Iran, also issued a warning that all US bases, interests and centres of influence would be the legitimate targets of the armed forces of Iran.

Disturbance of Global Supply Chains in the Era of War

Mruthyunjaya Sahoo

In the post–COVID-19 recovery phase, the global economy growth was gradually returning to stability. However, this fragile recovery has been repeatedly disrupted by rising geopolitical tensions and war-like situations across several regions. Conflicts between neighbouring countries have emerged as a serious threat to world economic growth, international trade, and global supply chains.

War represents a negative shock to the global economy. Border conflicts and prolonged hostilities interrupt production processes, damage infrastructure, and destroy physical and human capital. Prominent examples include the Russia–Ukraine conflict, tensions between China and Taiwan, the India–Pakistan war, the Israel–Palestine conflict, and confrontations involving the United States, Iran, and Venezuela. Such conflicts not only destabilize the country’s economy directly involved but also create ripple effects across the global economy.

Many countries specialize in the production of specific goods and are globally recognized for their output contribution to the world markets—such as energy resources, agricultural commodities, technology, or manufactured products. When war disrupts these economies, production declines sharply. As a result, affected countries become unable to participate effectively in global supply chains and international trade. This leads to shortages, rising prices, and uncertainty in global markets.

The economic consequences are severe. Directly, war leads to loss of income, employment, and a decline in living standards in conflict-affected regions. Indirectly, other countries also experience reduced growth, inflationary pressures, and supply disruptions. Thus, the standard of living and income levels of even peaceful nations are adversely affected.

In conclusion, the war hampers world peace and causes large-scale destruction of people, economic growth, global trade, and supply chains. In an increasingly interconnected world, peace is an essential for sustainable development and shared prosperity. Avoiding the war is not only a humanitarian necessity but also a fundamental requirement for global economic stability.

Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Jayanti 2026: On the occasion of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Jayanti, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath paid floral tribute to the legendary freedom fighter at a commemorative programme held in Lucknow on Thursday. Remembering Netaji as one of the greatest heroes of India’s freedom struggle, the Chief Minister bowed to his portrait and honoured his enduring legacy.

CM Yogi Adityanath said that Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose gave a new direction to India’s fight for independence and emerged as a guiding force for revolutionaries across the country. He described Netaji as a towering personality whose courage, leadership and patriotism continue to inspire generations of Indians.

Highlighting Netaji’s contribution to the nation, the Chief Minister said the country remains forever indebted to his selfless service and unwavering commitment to India’s freedom. He added that Netaji’s ideals of nationalism, sacrifice and discipline remain deeply relevant in building a strong and self-reliant India.

The programme in Lucknow witnessed participation from public representatives, officials and citizens, who paid homage to Netaji and reflected on his role in shaping India’s freedom movement. Floral tributes and remembrance messages marked the occasion, reaffirming the nation’s respect for one of its most iconic leaders.

The Chief Minister further noted that Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose symbolised fearless leadership and uncompromising resolve against colonial rule. His vision of a free and united India, CM Yogi Adityanath said, continues to guide the country’s democratic and constitutional journey even decades after independence.

CM Yogi Adityanath also emphasised that remembering Netaji is not limited to paying tribute on his birth anniversary, but lies in imbibing his values in everyday governance and public life. He said that the spirit of service, discipline and national pride championed by Netaji must reflect in policies aimed at public welfare, social justice and national unity.

Reiterating the state government’s commitment to nation-building, the Chief Minister said Uttar Pradesh is moving forward with the same spirit of dedication and resolve that Netaji embodied. He urged the youth to draw inspiration from Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose’s life and contribute actively to the progress, security and self-reliance of the nation.

Gangstran Te Vaar | Operation Prahaar Day 3: Bhagwant Mann cracks down on foreign-based gangster networks

Bhagwant Mann intensified its crackdown on organised crime under Gangstran Te Vaar with the third day of Operation Prahaar, delivering a major blow to gangster networks operating from abroad. The 72-hour intelligence-led operation focused on dismantling the logistical, financial and communication support systems of criminals active both within Punjab and from overseas locations.

Operation Prahaar Day 3: Bhagwant Mann cracks down on foreign-based gangster networks

According to official data shared by Punjab Police, a total of 4,871 individuals were rounded up during the state-wide operation, out of which 3,256 were formally arrested. The action also led to the arrest of 80 proclaimed offenders, while 25 individuals were taken into preventive custody to avert potential criminal activities.

Punjab Police said verification of all detained individuals is underway

During the operation, police teams recovered 69 weapons along with large quantities of heroin, opium, intoxicant pills, poppy husk and suspected drug money. The seizures point towards a coordinated effort to choke supply chains linked to narcotics trafficking and illegal arms movement, which officials say are often controlled by foreign-based gang leaders.

Over 2,000 police teams comprising nearly 12,000 personnel were deployed across Punjab to carry out coordinated raids, verification drives and targeted arrests. The operation specifically targeted financial channels, weapon suppliers, logistics handlers and communication links used by gangster syndicates to run their networks remotely.

Punjab Police said verification of all detained individuals is underway and strict legal action will be initiated against those found involved in criminal activities. Authorities have reiterated their zero-tolerance approach towards organised crime and drug syndicates operating in the state.

The police have also urged citizens to actively support the anti-gangster drive through the Anti-Gangster Helpline (93946-93946). Information can be shared anonymously, with rewards of up to ₹10 lakh being offered for inputs leading to the arrest of gangsters.

Battle Of Galwan: Salman Khan Set To Drop Patriotic Track ‘Maatrubhumi’ Ahead Of Republic Day 2026 – Check Teaser!

Salman Khan starrer Battle of Galwan first song Maatrubhumi

The makers of Salman Khan starrer Battle of Galwan have released the teaser of the film’s first song, Maatrubhumi. The song will be released on January 24, ahead of Republic Day 2026. It references the 2020 Galwan Valley clash, in which 20 Indian soldiers lost their lives.

Released by Salman Khan Films, the teaser offers a brief look at the film’s theme and setting. It focuses on the events surrounding the Galwan clash, one of the most serious confrontations along the Line of Actual Control in recent years.

What The Maatrubhumi Teaser Shows

The “Maatrubhumi” teaser opens with the sound of a military bugle. In its 15-second runtime, the visuals centre on soldiers in difficult terrain, with repeated shots of the Indian national flag. The imagery highlights the conditions faced by troops stationed at the border.

As the bugle fades, background music takes over while the visuals continue to show soldiers and national symbols. The teaser does not reveal much about the song itself, but gives an idea of the tone the makers are aiming for. The full track is expected to offer more clarity once it is released.

The decision to release the song close to Republic Day 2026 links the film’s promotional campaign to the national calendar.

Maatrubhumi is composed by Himesh Reshammiya, with lyrics written by Sameer Anjaan. The song is sung by Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal. It will be released on Salman Khan Films’ official music channel.

Sharing the song teaser, Salman Khan wrote, “#Maatrubhumi out tomorrow.”

Controversy Around Battle of Galwan

Battle of Galwan has been discussed widely since its teaser was released on December 27, 2025 during Salman Khan’s 60th birthday. The film is directed by Apoorva Lakhia and is based on the June 2020 Galwan Valley clash, which involved hand-to-hand combat between Indian and Chinese soldiers.

Following the teaser’s release, the Chinese government-linked Global Times criticised the film, stating it could not “rewrite history.” The publication also alleged factual inaccuracies and objected to how the Indian Army’s actions were portrayed. These comments triggered an online debate and drew further attention to the project.

Produced by Salman Khan Films, Battle of Galwan stars Salman Khan as a soldier. Chitrangada Singh plays a key role. The film is expected to focus on the events surrounding the Galwan clash and their impact on those involved.

Trump’s Peace Board: “Boot-Polishing” PM Shehbaz Sharif! Joining Donald Trump’s Mission Huge Embarrassment For Pakistan, Says Babar Awan

Trump's Peace Board

Trump’s Peace Board: Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is facing the wrath of the country after he joined the Donald Trump’s Peace Board.

Several parties and political leaders in Pakistan have blasted the decision of Sharif to join the board of peace. Calling its morally questionable and poorly thought, political leaders said an important decision like this should have been taken only after having a word with other parties. Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) rebuked the move by Shehbaz Sharif saying thorough scrutiny by the Pakistani parliament must have been practiced before finalizing anything.

Trump’s Peace Board-A Big Mistake For Pakistan To Join

Babar Awan, the former law minister of Pakistan, said the Pakistani PM had made a grave mistake. Awan said the habit of “boot-polishing” by Sharif has caused great damage to the country. The former law minister added that sitting on the Board of Peace to please the United States President is treason against the cause of Palestine. Awan added that holding Benjamin Netanyahu unaccountable for his atrocities and war crimes is a defiance of the command of Quaid-e-Azam.

What Would Pakistan Do In Gaza?

Under the agreement, Sharif’s Pakistan would send its military force in Gaza and disarm Hamas. Interestingly, Pakistan has blasted Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu in the past for Gaza attacks.

Trump’s Peace Board would emphasize on issues such as reconstruction, governance, capacity-building, regional relations, capital mobilization and large-scale funding. The White House also disclosed the establishment of a Gaza Executive Board that would join hands with the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) and the Office of the High Representative headed by Bulgarian diplomat Nickolay Mladenov.

It would be worth interest to find out whether the so-called Board Of Peace would do the world and Gaza any good as it looks more of a face-saver for the United States President.

T20 World Cup 2026: Pakistan Instigated Bangladesh To Boycott! Loss Of Rs 240 Crore For BCB, Can Big Brother Compensate?

T20 World Cup 2026

T20 World Cup 2026: The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has refused to travel to India for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2026. This was after the International Cricket Council (ICC) refused its request to shift its matches to Sri Lanka from India.

Madan Lal, a member of the 1983 World Cup-winning squad, claimed that it was Pakistan that instigated Bangladesh to pull out of the world cup. Previously, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had offered to be a host to matches involving Bangladesh. Madan Lal added that the decision of Bangladesh to skip the prestigious world cup would not hurt India as it is the strongest cricket boards today.

A few weeks back, Bangladeshi pacer Mustafizur Rahman was removed from the Indian Premier League.

In a meeting between the BCB, the players and the Bangladesh government, it was announced that the assessment of ICC was not acceptable to Bangladesh. The ICC’s independent security assessments concluded that there were absolutely no credit threats to officials or players at the Indian venues. The ICC contended that altering the T20 World Cup 2026 schedule so close to the event in India was infeasible.

T20 World Cup 2026-Scotland To Replace Bangladesh

Scotland is all set to replace Bangladesh after the latter refused to play its matches in India.

The BCB would suffer a loss of around 27 million dollars (Rs. 240 crores, 325 crore Bangladeshi Taka) for boycotting the cricket world cup. Furthermore, it would lose sponsorship revenue, broadcast revenue and its income for the financial year would take a big hit, which would be close to 60 percent or more. This would also mean that India would now refuse to travel in August-September in Bangladesh.

Bangladeshi players were assured that they would not be missing out on match money. BCB told players that they would still be paid.

Border 2 hit theatres on Friday, January 23, 2026, amid strong buzz and patriotic excitement. The film is a spiritual sequel to JP Dutta’s 1997 classic Border. Early reactions from audiences have been positive, with good footfalls and encouraging word of mouth on day one. As the film settles into its theatrical run, many viewers are already asking one key question: when and where will Border 2 stream online?

If you are planning your OTT watchlist, here is a clear update on Border 2’s digital release.

Border 2 OTT Release: Netflix Or Prime Video?

After its theatrical run, Border 2 will stream on Netflix. The makers have reportedly sold the OTT rights to the global streaming platform ahead of the film’s cinema release. This confirms that the film will not be available on Prime Video or any other OTT service.

That said, the official streaming date has not been announced yet. Since the film has only just released in theatres, the producers are expected to wait before revealing the OTT window. Based on industry trends, Border 2 is likely to arrive on Netflix around March or April, depending on how long it continues to perform well at the box office.

Big-budget Hindi films usually enjoy a six-to-eight-week theatrical window. If Border 2 maintains strong collections, its digital release could be pushed further to maximise cinema earnings.

Border 2 carries forward the legacy of the original Border, which portrayed the Battle of Longewala during the 1971 India–Pakistan war. While the first film focused on one iconic battle, the sequel explores another important chapter from the same war.

The story is centred on the Battle of Basantar, a crucial and intense conflict fought in the western sector during the 1971 war. Indian forces secured a major victory in the Punjab and Jammu region and the film brings this battle to life with emotional depth and military detail.

Directed by Anurag Singh, known for Kesari, the film combines realistic war sequences with strong character moments. Themes of bravery, sacrifice and brotherhood remain at the heart of the story.

The film is led by Sunny Deol and also stars Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh and Ahan Shetty in prominent roles. Mona Singh, Sonam Bajwa and Anya Singh appear in key supporting parts. Border 2 is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, JP Dutta and Nidhi Dutta
