Sunny Deol's highly anticipated film Lahore 1947, was initially scheduled for release on Republic Day this year. However, its launch has been postponed for reasons that remain unclear. The actor has now disclosed that filming is nearly finished, but the release date has not yet been determined due to extensive post-production work being undertaken by producer Aamir Khan.
In an interview with Pinkvilla regarding the film's progress, Sunny stated, "The film is definitely coming. I started it earlier, and a significant portion of the shooting has been completed. I began working on Jaat afterward. However, the process is taking a bit longer because Aamir (Khan) is the producer, and he is meticulous about editing and ensuring everything is perfect."
