The much anticipated Gadar 2 starring Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel is just a day away from its release. Directed by Anil Sharma, the film is a sequel to Gadar, which was released in 2001. This sequel is set during the Indo-Pakistan war of 1971, due to which Tara Singh (Sunny) returns to Pakistan to bring his son Charanjeet back home.
In a recent interview, the director went on to reveal that the budget for the film was not big enough, and he is forever grateful for Sunny who reduced his fees for the film. When Anil was asked if he could reveal the budget, he said, "Log market me 80, 100, 150 bolte hain. Aisa kuch nahi hai, usse kam hai."
Anil was also probed about Sunny's fees to which he responded, "That is just one person, we managed that. And, to tell you the truth, even he reduced his fees a lot. These days, the actors' and directors' fees are too high, shooting the budget of films to 500-600 crore. Out of those,150 or 200 crore is the hero's share. What we thought was, to put the money in production."
Gadar 2 will release on August 11 and will be clashing at the box office with Akshay Kumar starrer OMG2.
