Varun Dhawan introduced her lovingly. Mona Singh took the mic and said, “Varun, you are a sweetheart. I was about to say 'heartsweet' as my heart is beating so fast (laughs)!”

She added, “Many times, I feel that we don't choose scripts. The script chooses us. That's exactly what happened to me for Border 2. When I was offered the script, I knew that I had to do this film. I came on board just a week before the shoot.”

She continued, “I was busy somewhere else promoting another show. I realized that I had to match dates as I was keen to do the film, not just because of the script, but also because I am a fauji's daughter. My dad (Jasbir Singh) fought the 1971 war. There's a scene at the beginning of the film where Sunny sir enters the minefield. That's exactly what happened to my father and to many other soldiers. They stepped on the mine. My father lost his foot.”

She further stated, “Hence, the determination, resilience, fear, anxiety and pain of my character Simi Kaler is something I had lived through because of my dad. The script made it so real and easy to relate to the character. The soldiers go to the borders and their families also stand in full support with them.”
