FILMMAKER Rajkumar Santoshi said he is set to reunite with Sunny Deol for his new action drama, Ghatak Ghus Ke Maarega, which he says will feature the Bollywood star in the same character as his 90s's cult action film, Ghatak. The director-actor duo worked together on the recently released partition drama, Batwara, which marked their reunion after 30 years. They delivered box office hits in the 90s like Ghayal, Damini, and Ghatak. "Sunny and I are working on a few stories, and soon we will make a formal announcement about it. The film has fullfledged action. It is called Ghatak Ghus Ke Maarega. It is not a sequel.

 

But it is the same character, like the character is from Banaras," Santoshi told PTI in an interview. "The fans of Sunny will be happy as this new film has action, powerful dialogues and emotion. Besides this film, there are two to three more stories in the pipeline with Sunny. For instance, one movie features Sunny as a sardar in America, which is also an action-drama," the director said. The 1996 action-drama film, Ghatak, directed by Santoshi, narrates the story of a righteous man (Deol), who fights a ruthless gangster terrorising a community. Santoshi also informed he isn't directing Jaat 2, a sequel to Deol's 2025 action thriller film. "I said no for it because I don't believe in making sequels," the director said when asked about Jaat 2.
