About War 2
The action thriller is the sixth instalment in YRF’s spy universe, following Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, War, Pathaan, and Tiger 3. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the film marks Jr NTR’s Bollywood debut. He plays the antagonist opposite Hrithik Roshan, while Kiara Advani plays the female lead. The film is scheduled to release in cinemas on 14 August.
The teaser, however, received mixed reactions. While some viewers were unimpressed with the visual effects, others expressed disappointment that Jr NTR didn’t seem to match Hrithik’s intensity in the teaser. What did catch everyone’s attention, though, was Kiara’s bikini look. She shared the teaser on her Instagram Story and wrote, “Lots of firsts in this. First YRF film (emotional face emoji). First action film (female police officer emoji). First with these two amazing heroes (fire emoji). First collaboration with Ayan (clapper board emoji). And of course, first bikini shot (mermaid emoji).”
