'Gadar 2' starring Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel in lead roles released in theatres on August 11. The sequel to the 2001 blockbuster 'Gadar: Ek Prem Katha' is having a golden run at the box office. It has already crossed Rs 300 crore at the ticket windows. The Anil Sharma directorial has got positive reviews from critics and audiences alike. Hema Malini, Sunny's stepmom has also watched the film and she was all praise for it. 

On Saturday night, the actress was seen coming out of a theatre after watching 'Gadar 2'. When she was asked about her review by the paps, she raved about the movie and also called Sunny Deol's performance 'superb'.

She said in Hindi, "Gadar dekh kar aayi hun. Bohut hi accha laga. Jo expected tha waise hi tha. Bohut hi interesting hai. Aesa lag raha tha ki 70s aur 80s ka us zamane ka film k jaesa ek daur hai. Us daur ko leke aaye hai Anil Sharma ji ne bohut beautiful direction kiya hai (I just watched Gadar. I liked it a lot. What was expected, it's exactly that. It is very interesting. It felt like a film from the 70s and 80s era. Anil Sharma has shown that era, it has been directed beautifully)."

She called Sunny's performance 'superb', and added, ''Utkarsh, Anil Sharma ji's son unhone ne bhi bohut sundar acting kiya hai. Jo nayi ladki hai, woh bhi bohut acchi hai. Yeh picture dekh kar ek dum rasjtra k prati jo bhav hone chahiye, patriotism, woh bohut hi hai. Muslim k prati jo bhai chara hona chahiye, us vishay ko last mein leke aaye hai (Utkarsh, Anil Sharma ji's son he has also done beautiful acting. The new girl is also very good. After watching the film, the patriotism that should be felt towards the country is there. The matter of brotherhood towards the Muslims has also been shown towards the end). It's a nice message for India and Pakistan."

Earlier, in an interview, Dharmendra also spoke about his son's film success. He told Times Now that there is a chance that the film's success will surpass the first part. "This means that a big part of the Gadar 2 audience was not even born when the first Gadar was released. And yet, they are cheering, whistling, and clapping in the theatres. People are going crazy for the film,'' added the veteran actor.
