YRF to take complete charge of Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR starrer 'War 2' global release
Picture Credit: X
The much-awaited action thriller 'War 2' is gearing up for a grand global release of 'War 2,' starring
Hrithik Roshan
and Jr. NTR. The film is set to hit theaters worldwide in multiple languages on the upcoming India's Independence Day release window.
As per Gulte, YRF has decided to take complete control of the film's theatrical release across all regions, including the Telugu states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Despite several top Telugu production houses expressing interest in acquiring the regional rights, the makers are sticking to their strategy of handling distribution independently. This approach also extends to North India, other parts of South India, and overseas markets, showing the studio's confidence in the film's pan-Indian and international appeal.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji, this film is the sixth installment in the production house's spy universe and a sequel to the 2019 blockbuster 'War.' It stars Hrithik Roshan reprising his role as Major Kabir Dhaliwal, a top RAW agent, and marks Jr. NTR's much-awaited Bollywood debut as the antagonist.
The shooting of the film is nearly complete, with only one major sequence left to film, which is a high-energy dance face-off between Hrithik and Jr.
NTR. This particular schedule faced delays due to Hrithik Roshan's knee injury during rehearsals but is expected to wrap up soon and will lead the way for post-production work.
The teaser, released on Jr. NTR's birthday, showcases intense action sequences, including sword fights, car chases, and hand-to-hand combat, highlighting the electrifying chemistry and rivalry between the two stars. Hrithik's character returns in a darker and more ruthless avatar.
The film is also set for a box office clash with 'Coolie,' starring superstar
Rajinikanth
and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, which is also slated for release on August 14.

Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 3: Aamir Khan's film crosses Rs..., Sunday earnings jump to...
RS Prasanna's Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh-starrer Sitaare Zameen Par left a lasting impact on the audience. The movie witnessed a good weekend. And, as per early estimates by industry tracker, Sitaare Zameen Par crossed the Rs 50 crore net mark in India alone. According to a trade website, Sitaare Zameen Par earned Rs 26.45 crore on Sunday, bringing its total net collection in India to Rs 57.35 crore. Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Aamir Khan's film had a shaky start on the opening day, earning Rs 10.7 crore. However, as the weekend hit, the film witnessed a massive growth of 88.79 per cent on Saturday. As a result, the numbers rose to Rs 20.2 crore. The movie also witnessed a 41.76% Hindi occupancy on Sunday, with numbers growing as the day progressed. About Sitaare Zameen Par Sitaare Zameen Par is a spiritual sequel to Aamir's 2007 film Taare Zameen Par. The movie featured Darsheel Safary in the lead and Tisca Chopra and Vipin Sharma in key roles. On the other hand, in Sitaare Zameen Par, the cast included real neurodivergent kids including Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar.

Sitaare Zameen Par Review review of Sitaare Zameen Par states, 'Overall, Sitaare Zameen Par is a true example of how one should deal with sensitive topics such as Down syndrome. While some try to make a mockery of such subjects, this film does not just keep its focus on the characters but also gives a life lesson. This film is a typical Aamir Khan-style film that perfectly balances humour and emotions and does not feel like a forced sequel at all; instead, it raises the bar high for its remarkable legacy.'
