Released strategically on Vijay Diwas, December 16, the preview offers a gripping glimpse into a war drama that pledges to surpass its predecessor in scale and intensity.
Mumbai Launch Event and Star-Studded Presence
The teaser premiered at a special event held in Mumbai. The launch was attended by lead actor Sunny Deol, who makes a monumental return to the franchise, alongside his co-stars Varun Dhawan and Ahan Shetty.
