Medha Rana, a debutant, has been chosen to star alongside Varun Dhawan in their upcoming film 'Border 2'. Hailing from an Army background, Medha was cast due to her "raw talent" and "effortless command over the regional dialect", said producer Bhushan Kumar. Further, co-producer Nidhi Dutta added, "Medha Rana opposite actor Varun Dhawan will bring freshness and sincerity."
