A Shivgan, he ascends on Earth to support Mahadev's devotee Kanti Sharan Mudgal (Pankaj Tripathi) in his case against his son's school for not prioritising sex education. The reprised version of Ud Ja Kale Kawa is a part of Gadar 2.

Gadar 2, co-starring Ameesha Patel and Utkarsh Sharma, is directed by Anil Sharma. While the film was bashed by critics, Sunny's fans showed their loyalty and came out in large numbers to show support. Its pre-release buzz and the franchise's popularity gave the film an additional push.
