While Sunny Deol is currently prepping for the release of his next action-packed venture Jaat, the actor has finally shared an update on another much-talked-about film from his slate — Lahore 1947. The film, which has already created buzz for being produced by Aamir Khan and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, marks Sunny’s first-ever collaboration with the Laal Singh Chaddha star.

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Sunny revealed that the film is very much in progress, though some delays have occurred due to Aamir’s meticulous approach as a producer. “Woh film definitely aa rahi hai. Woh kya hua woh film maine pehle shuru ki thi. Uski kaafi shooting poori khatam ho chuki hai. And uske baad maine Jaat shuru ki hai. But usme thoda sa waqt isliye bhi lag raha hai (That film is definitely coming. What happened is, I had started that film earlier. A large part of the shooting is already complete. After that, I began work on Jaat. But that film is taking a little more time) because Aamir is the producer and he wants to take his time, wants to edit, wants to see everything, he wants to be very perfect about everything,” Sunny explained.
Lahore 1947 is based on Asghar Wajahat’s iconic Hindi play Jis Lahore Nai Dekhya, O Jamyai Nai, a powerful narrative rooted in the post-partition period of India. The story explores the emotional and cultural consequences of the 1947 partition, and its cinematic adaptation has been in talks for years.
Sunny also shared how the film has had a long journey before finally coming together in its current form. “Lahore ek aisa subject hai jispe ham kaafi saalon se kaam kar rahe the, kayin actron ne kahaani suni hai. Kayin actor ke saath banne wala bhi tha, lekin bana nahi (Lahore is a subject we’ve been working on for years. Many actors have heard the story. It was supposed to be made with several actors earlier, but it didn’t happen). Then again Gadar 2 has made everything happen,” he said.
The film boasts of a powerful ensemble cast including Preity Zinta, who is making a comeback to the big screen, along with Sunny’s son Karan Deol, veteran actress Shabana Azmi, and Ali Fazal in pivotal roles. With the combination of an emotional storyline, a seasoned director in Rajkumar Santoshi, and the backing of Aamir Khan Productions, Lahore 1947 is one of the most anticipated films in the pipeline. An official release date is yet to be announced, but fans can expect a film that brings historical depth, drama, and heart to the silver screen.
