Story of ‘Gadar: Ek Prem Katha’
Anil Sharma wrote the story of the film Gadar: Ek Prem Katha in a very different way. The plot of the story was set in the era when India got independence from the British and India was divided into two parts. People were moving here and there in the two parts of a country and some bad people were taking advantage of this. There is a truck driver in the film whose name is Tara Singh (Sunny Deol) and he falls in love with Sakina (Ameesha Patel), the daughter of a politician.
During the partition, Sakina’s family goes to Pakistan and Sakina is left behind here. The difficulties are such that Tara has to marry Sakina. Both live happily for about 7 years but then Sakina goes to Pakistan to meet her family but is unable to return. Then it is shown how Tara brings Sakina back from Pakistan. The story further was shown in the film Gadar 2.
