Kiara Advani shines in the trailer, balancing romance with Hrithik’s character and fierce action sequences, including a striking moment where she headbutts him. The trailer features breathtaking visuals, from action scenes on a moving train to a dramatic showdown in an ice cave, hinting at the film’s ambitious scale. Fans have taken to social media, praising the trailer’s intensity and the chemistry between the leads, with some calling it “straight up legendary.”
War 2, the sixth installment in YRF’s Spy Universe, follows the 2019 blockbuster War. It marks Ayan Mukerji’s debut in the franchise and is positioned as a pan-India release in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil, with over 7,500 screens booked globally and a three-week exclusive IMAX run.
The film also marks a historic milestone as the first Indian movie to release in Dolby Cinema in India and select international markets. YRF strategically chose July 25 to launch the trailer, honoring the 25-year milestones of Hrithik Roshan (Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai, 2000) and Jr NTR (Ninnu Choodalani, 2000).
The production house announced, “In 2025, two icons of Indian cinema complete 25 years of their glorious cinematic journey. To celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime moment, YRF marks July 25 as the trailer launch date of War 2!”
The film’s marketing amplifies the rivalry between its leads, with Hrithik and Jr NTR promoting separately to maintain narrative tension. A grand pre-release event is planned in Vijayawada in early August.
With its star-studded cast, cutting-edge visuals, and a nod to the YRF Spy Universe’s legacy, War 2 is poised to be one of 2025’s biggest theatrical events, with fans eagerly awaiting its Independence Day release.
