In an exclusive conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Ali Mughal opened up about being a part of the most iconic franchise, Border 2.

I will never forget my first meeting with Sunny sir. I told him (in Punjabi) that I was a kid when Border was released, and now I am working on Border 2. He charmingly replied, “I still feel I am a kid.”

Furthermore, talking about how much the classic cult franchise is responsible for taking the legacy forward of Border, which was released in 1997. He said, “I feel it is a huge responsibility for an actor to bring out everything he has when it comes to acting and to deliver it correctly. I know people from the industry and our lovely audience are going to judge your performance, so I have always worked hard on my acting skills to be ready for such big opportunities or any opportunity.”

“For me, an actor is like a gun: it looks good with fire inside. It should not be jammed; you have to keep cleaning and handling it properly. Plus, it should have the right emotion inside, so it fires at its best when the right time arrives,” he concluded.
