After delivering blockbusters like ' Gadar 2 ' and ' Jaat ', Sunny Deol has cemented his place as one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars. His 2025 line-up already includes 'Border 2', 'Lahore 1947', and 'Ramayana: Part One'. Sunny is reportedly set to collaborate with Excel Entertainment for the first time on a big-budget action thriller.



Sunny's first collaboration



According to Pinkvilla, the yet untitled action thriller will mark the first collaboration between Sunny Deol and Excel Entertainment. The two stakeholders have been in talks for a while now, and are excited to collaborate on a high-concept big-budget action thriller. Sunny has liked the script and is excited to partner with Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani on the film.



Directorial debut



The report also mentioned that the film will mark the directorial debut of Balaji, who has previously worked on several Tamil blockbusters as an assistant and associate director.



'It’s a larger-than-life feature film with Sunny Deol in an avatar that the audience loves to see him in. Excel too is going all out to ensure that their maiden collaboration with Sunny turns out to be a special treat for the cinema-going audience, with a lot of intense and high-on-drama moments, stated the report.



Upcoming action thriller



The casting for other important roles in the yet-to-be-titled action thriller is currently in progress. An official announcement revealing the title and first look is expected soon. Meanwhile, Excel Entertainment is gearing up for an exciting lineup of theatrical releases over the next two years, including '120 Bahadur', ' Mirzapur: The Movie ', and the much-anticipated ' Don 3 '.
