Hrithik Roshan to start War 2 next week with an action packed introduction sequence Barely a month post the release of Fighter, Hrithik Roshan is all geared up to revisit his character of Agent Kabir from War franchise. Immediately post the release of Fighter on January 25th 2024, the actor began prep for War. In a recent interview, Hrithik had said, “I can tell you just the fact that we are about to begin (War 2). It goes on floor very, very soon, a bit too soon, maybe. I don’t get a breather.”
In 2019, Hrithik Roshan’s portrayal of Agent Kabir in War became the talk of the town and over the years, the character has made a lasting impact among the audience. He returned in the Spy Avatar with a post-credit sequence in the Diwali 2023 release, Tiger 3, which regenerated conversations around his return with War 2. Now, Hrithik Roshan is all set to start shooting for War 2 from next week.
Anticipation for War 2 is at an all time high since it was known that Jr.NTR will be joining the Spy universe and seen sharing screen with Hrithik.
The YRF Spy Universe Film is directed by Ayan Mukerji and the filmmaker is all charged up to bring out a new side of Hrithik Roshan as Kabir in the War sequel. “Hrithik Roshan is all set to start shooting for War 2 by February 23. He kicks off the journey on War 2 with an action-packed introductory sequence, designed by Ayan Mukerji, Aditya Chopra, and the entire action team of the film. Hrithik will be shooting for his introductory action sequence for two weeks and the makers are confident to take the audience on a ride from the first frame of the film,” revealed a source close to the development
Hrithik has been training to get into a certain body type for War 2 for the last two weeks, and that’s when he injured his lower back. The actor is currently in recovery and will be back on the set like a true fighter from next week. “Ayan Mukerji and Aditya Chopra have meticulously worked on the script of War 2 to differentiate it from all that has been done in the YRF Spy Universe till date. War 2 will be an action spectacle like never before and as suggested by the post-credit sequence in Tiger 3, this one would be a little darker and gritty,” the source informed.
A couple of weeks ago, Hrithik has shared details about War 2 in an interview. The actor had said, “Kabir has definitely left a mark. And getting into Kabir’s boots is going to be fun because this time, my challenge is to show Kabir in a different light. A different aspect of him which is going to be interesting”.
War 2 has been the talk of the town as it marks the coming together of two of the Biggest names of the Indian Film Industry, Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR. The film is set to be a true blue pan-India film as it will feature the celebrated Superstars from North & South of the country. War 2 is set to release on August 14th 2025.
