Dhawan also noted it as one of the most special moments of his career. 

The announcement video begins with a song of Border and afterwards Varun can be heard delivering a powerful monologue, "Dushman ki har goli se Jai Hind bol kar takrata hu, Jab dharti maa bulati hai, sab chor kar aata hu, Hindustan ka fauji hu". (I face every enemy bullet by shouting 'Jai Hind!' When Mother India calls, I leave everything behind and come. I am a soldier of Hindustan)

The Bawal actor also took to social media to express his heartfelt gratitude and penned, "I was just a kid in class four when I went to Chandan cinema and saw Border. And it made such a big impact. I still remember the sense of national pride we all felt in the hall. I began looking up to our armed forces and to this day, I salute how they protect us and keep us safe be it on our borders or during natural calamities."
