Anticipation is reaching fever pitch for War 2, the next explosive installment in Yash Raj Films’ burgeoning Spy Universe. Set to hit screens worldwide on August 14, 2025, coinciding with India’s Independence Day weekend, the film promises a high-octane confrontation between two of Indian cinema’s biggest stars: Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji, stepping into the high-stakes world of the YRF Spy Universe, War 2 picks up the narrative from its highly successful predecessor, War (2019). While specific plot details remain tightly under wraps, it’s understood that Hrithik Roshan reprises his role as Major Kabir Dhaliwal, the enigmatic and highly skilled Indian agent. This time, however, he faces a formidable new adversary in the form of Jr NTR, making his much-anticipated Hindi cinema debut as Agent Vikram. The film’s official synopsis hints at a “brutal Cat versus Rottweiler game” as the two agents face off, with “the entire world as their brutal bloody battleground.”
Kiara Advani joins the stellar cast in a pivotal role, with Ashutosh Rana reprising his role as Colonel Sunil Luthra. Veteran actor Anil Kapoor has also been cast, and brief cameo appearances from Alia Bhatt and Sharvari are expected, potentially linking War 2 to future installments like Alpha.

Production for War 2 has been extensive, with principal photography commencing in October 2023. Filming locations have spanned across India (Mumbai, Hyderabad) and international destinations including Spain, Italy (Venice, Lake Como, Naples), and Abu Dhabi, suggesting a grand visual scale. Action sequences have been choreographed by an impressive team of international and Indian stunt directors, including Spiro Razatos, Franz Spilhaus, Anal Arasu, Craig Macrae, Se-yeong Oh, and Sunil Rodrigues. Pritam is helming the soundtrack, with Sanchit Balhara and Ankit Balhara composing the film’s score.
The film’s journey to release has already seen significant buzz. A teaser released on May 20, 2025, coincided with Jr NTR’s birthday, igniting fan excitement despite some initial mixed reactions regarding its visual quality. However, the true unveiling is set for July 25, 2025, with the release of the official trailer. This date holds special significance as it celebrates 25 years of cinematic journey for both Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, adding an extra layer of anticipation for their on-screen clash.
War 2 is set for a massive global release in various premium formats, including IMAX, D-Box, ICE, 4DX, and Dolby Cinema, underscoring YRF’s confidence in this tentpole action-thriller. As the countdown to August 14 begins, all eyes are on War 2 to deliver an unprecedented cinematic experience, marking a major milestone in the ever-expanding YRF Spy Universe.
