Hrithik also shared his admiration for NTR Jr, calling it “an honor to work alongside” him, and praised Kiara Advani for her powerful performance: “I’m so excited for the world to witness the lethal side of you.”
Reflecting on his character Kabir Dhaliwal, Hrithik added, “It’s always bitter-sweet to call it a wrap for Kabir. It will take a couple of days to feel like myself again.” He signed off with a nod to the film’s release: “Now onto the journey of presenting our film to you all on August 14th, 2025.”
Kabir Returns: Darker, Bulkier, Deadlier in War 2
Hrithik’s character, Major Kabir Dhaliwal, became a fan favorite after 'War' (2019) turned into a box office juggernaut. In this sequel, Kabir is said to return with a transformative arc, appearing darker, more menacing, and physically intense.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner, 'War 2' stars Hrithik Roshan, NTR Jr, and Kiara Advani in lead roles. With IMAX screens also part of the film’s release plan, it’s set for a wide global rollout on August 14, 2025.
A Spy Universe Showdown Awaits
'War 2' is a pivotal chapter in YRF’s growing spy universe, following films like Pathaan, Tiger 3, and War. The film brings together a high-octane mix of espionage, action, and intense drama, with the added buzz of Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr sharing screen space for the first time.
