The Protector of the Nation On and Off the Battlefield

Beyond war dramas, Sunny explored patriotism through law enforcement and espionage. In Indian, he played a fearless police officer battling corruption within the system. In The Hero: Love Story of a Spy, he stepped into the shoes of a RAW agent balancing duty, danger, and emotion. Heroes offered a softer, emotional tribute to fallen soldiers, showing that patriotism isn’t only about fighting wars but also about honouring sacrifice. These films highlighted his range while staying true to his core image: a man who stands tall for the country, no matter the battlefield.
