‘Border’ is celebrated not only for its gripping storyline and powerful performances but also for its memorable musical score. Songs like ‘Sandese Aate Hai,’ sung by Roopkumar Rathod and Sonu Nigam, became anthems of patriotism and are still cherished by fans today.

This film is the third installment in the highly successful ‘Singham’ franchise. ‘Singham Again’ features an ensemble cast including Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, and Ranveer Singh. The previous films in the series, ‘Singham’ (2011) and ‘Singham Returns’ (2014), were both major hits at the box office.

‘Singham Again’ promises to deliver high-octane action and drama, continuing the legacy of its predecessors. The film is slated for release in August 2024, perfectly timed to coincide with India’s Independence Day, adding to the patriotic fervor of the occasion.

For fans of Jackie Shroff and Indian cinema, the 27th anniversary of ‘Border’ is a reminder of the film’s lasting impact and a celebration of its contribution to the portrayal of Indian military history.
