Filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi confirms that Sunny Deol will return to his “Ghatak” character in an upcoming action drama titled “Ghatak Ghus Ke Maarega.” Santoshi says the project brings the director and actor back together after earlier collaborations and positions Deol to reprise the same persona audiences associate with the 1996 cult film.
Santoshi also clarifies that “Ghatak Ghus Ke Maarega” is not a sequel, even as it draws on the original character. Both outlets report that Deol is set to play the same character from the 1996 film, with the new title framed as a fresh offering rather than a continuation of the earlier story. Times of India additionally notes Santoshi’s other upcoming plans, stating he is not directing “Jaat 2,” and that he is preparing “Ada Apni Apni” and other projects with Deol after their collaboration on “Batwara 1947.” The core difference across coverage is emphasis: NDTV focuses on the reunion and non-sequel claim, while Times of India also situates the news within Santoshi’s broader slate and scheduling.
