Sunny Deol on clash between his Gadar 2 and Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2

Sunny Deol, the actor, was asked about the box office fight in a recent interview with the Times of India. Sunny thought back to the 2001 incident between Gadar and Lagaan and how such movies shouldn’t be compared. Sunshine said:  “Gadar did 100 crore plus, while Lagaan did much less. I don’t understand why people compare – whether it’s from the business or likeability point. Gadar didn’t have the perception, people thought it is this masala film, yeh purani type ki picture hai, purane type ke gaane hai. On the other hand, people thought Lagaan was classic, etc. The so-called people who talk about films had run down Gadar completely. It went on to become a people’s film, and they loved it. At award shows, I remember that they made a spoof of Gadar, but we weren’t bothered by it. It has happened with some of my other films too, like Ghayal and Dil, which clashed.”

He added, “There is no comparison, but people like to do it. What I am trying to say is that jo film zyada acchi hoti hai phir bhi aap usko doosre films ke barabari mein le aatey ho. Jis cheez ki barabari nahin hai, mat karo.”
