Free Press Journal's Border 2 Review

The Free Press Journal reviewer awarded Border 2 3.5 stars, writing in the review, "Border 2 starts with the introduction of all four lead characters, and later, goes into flashback (1961), focusing on the training and friendship of Dahiya, Rawat, and Sekhon. The first half is a perfect package; it has a couple of good action sequences, there's a bit of comedy, romance, drama, and a lot of emotional scenes. You will get tears in your eyes a lot of times while watching the first half of Border 2. The interval point promises that the second half will concentrate on the war. The war scenes have been shot very well, especially the scenes featuring the Indian Navy and the IAF. There are many goosebump moments. Border 2 is an emotional film that gives a perfect tribute to our soldiers from the Indian Army, the Indian Air Force, and the Indian Navy."
