Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2 scripted history after emerging as the fastest top-grossing Hindi movie. The movie continues its heroic run at the box office. With its domestic collection of Rs 460 crore, the movie crossed 3 crore footfalls on its 18th day. However, after a phenomenal show at the box office, the third week saw a decrease in collection.

Gadar 2 emerged as one of the most successful movies of the year. Starting from cine lovers, and movie critics to celebrities, everyone is showering praises on Gadar 2: The Katha Continues.

What shocked and impressed everyone at the same time is the phenomenal success of Gadar 2 has ended the cold war between Sunny Deol and Shah Rukh Khan.

Cine buffs are well aware that with the success of Yash Chopra-directed Darr established the stardom of Shah Rukh Khan. Though Sunny Deol was the protagonist in the movie, SRK stole the show as the anti-hero. Featuring Juhi Chawla as the female lead, Darr was more about the anti-hero’s love and his obsession for the female lead.

Chopra gave more importance to SRK and some hit songs were also picturised on him. Following the movie's release, movie lovers were in awe of the young talent. Even though Sunny was a big actor then with two National Awards, he got sidelined.

Following that, Sunny vowed never to work and speak with SRK. They never spoke with each other and were never seen together again.

However, things seem to have changed now.

Recently, during his Ask Me session on Twitter, replying to a question if he has seen Gadar 2, SRK replied, ‘Yeah loved it.’

Now, Sunny has revealed big that hints at the end of the Cold War between them.

During a talk session on Zoom, Sunny said, “Shah Rukh Khan, it is a matter of fact, he has seen this film and before that, he had called me up and he wished me and he was so happy. He told me that, ‘I am so happy and you genuinely deserve it.’ And I said Thank You and all...” 

Further, he added, “I spoke to his wife and son as well and he said, ‘Today we are going to watch your film and I said ‘Great.’ And after that, I think he has seen the film and Tweeted.”

"I had spoken to him a couple of days back and that’s when he called up and it was so beautiful. On many occasions, I have called him up and shared with him my thoughts on certain things. That’s the way. But, obviously, about the past issues or whatever they were I say, time heals everything and we move ahead and that’s how everything should be,” he added.
