When asked about speculation that Jr NTR would have a smashing entry only at the interval point, Ayan said, “We are smart enough not to make a movie where he comes in only at the interval point. That much sense we have. But I can assure you that Jr NTR's entry sequence is one of the major highlights of the film, and you have to watch War 2 and discover that on your own."

He further spoke about audiences getting a big surprise on August 14 and said, “I know there’s a lot of excitement, especially in this part of the country, to see the film because of our trailers and songs. But actually, I think everybody is in for a real surprise on August 14 when the film releases. Because the story of the film and the real soul of the film, we have not yet revealed at all. I am really looking forward to experiencing that.”
