Talking about the rumored scene, Anil Sharma said that he sat with a team of 10-15 people from his crew and discussed the hammer scene. “I asked them, ‘Jo Bollywood aur South ke bade hero hai, woh yeh scene karte toh kaise lagta (How would it look if big stars from Bollywood or the South did it)?’ They unanimously said, ‘Woh log karte toh bhi accha lagta lekin jaise Sunny sir lag rahe hai, waisa koi nahin lagta (They would look good, but nobody could look like Sunny sir).’
Anil also shared Sunny’s first reaction to Gadar 2. “Sunny told me ‘Gadar itni badi hit hai. Uski ek legacy hai (Gadar was a huge hit and has its legacy)’.” I replied, ‘Kyunki poora Hindustan chahta hai ki Gadar 2 banein. Humein logon ki toh sunni chahiye (The whole country wants Gadar 2 to be made and we should listen to the people).” He then agreed to the narration. When he heard the story, unki aankhon mein nanha sa ek aansoo aaya (He had a tiny tear in his eye)’. That’s how the journey began,” added the filmmaker.
