The Deol brothers recently appeared in one of the episodes of the talk show, Koffee with Karan and the elder one, Sunny Deol opened up on many issues including his latest release Gadar 2 which broke many records at the box-office. The movie was sequel of 2001 release Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, it was directed by Anil Sharma and starred Ameesha Patel, Utkarsh Sharma and others in important roles.
Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2 clashed with Gadar 2 as they both released on the same day and Sunny Deol revealed that he asked Akshay Kumar to postpone the release of his movie if it is in his hand but he refused as it was all in the control of the studio. Sunny Deol said that it hurt him a little as he felt that at least his movie will get more theatres if no other movie is releasing at that time.
Sunny Deol stated, “I haven’t had success for donkeys years. I didn’t want anybody to come along with it, but you can’t stop anybody. So obviously, it does hurt you. Then I was like, ‘it doesn’t matter let’s go along with it.’ But initially, when things were not working out for the longest time, I thought if nobody would release alongside your film then you would at least get theatres.”
When KJo asked Sunny Deol whether he talked to Akshay Kumar in this regard, he responded with, “I asked him, ‘please don’t do it if it’s in your hands,’ but he said no, the studio, and all that… and they said that anyway two films can release, so I said, okay, go ahead. I can just request; I can’t do anything more than that.”
Though both the movies released at same time, Gadar 2 crossed the Rs. 500 crore mark and OMG 2 also earned a handsome amount of Rs. 140 crore.
