Suniel Shetty has revealed why he has not yet watched his son Ahan Shetty’s latest film, Border 2, despite its strong box office performance.
The veteran actor made a personal vow to watch the film only after it crosses the ₹500 crore mark worldwide.
The film was released on january 23 and has already crossed ₹400 crore globally, putting it close to the milestone Suniel is waiting for.
Speaking at Network’s Ideas of india Summit 2026, Suniel shared that his decision was emotional rather than strategic.
He said he believed a patriotic film like Border 2 deserved to achieve ₹500 crore.

Suniel confessed that resisting the urge to watch the film hasn’t been easy.
He revealed that he once stood outside a cinema hall, listening to Ahan’s dialogues from inside.
Despite feeling tempted to buy a ticket and enter, he reminded himself of his vow and walked away.
He said he wants to watch the film not as a celebrity, but as a proud father once the milestone is achieved.
Border 2 is directed by Anurag Singh.
