The trailer opens with both characters reciting their oaths as Indian soldiers and spies. Hrithik promises to relinquish his name and identity and become a ghost, while NTR vows to do all that others can't do. Both believe it's ‘India first’, yet, for some unknown reason, are out to destroy each other.

We get glimpses of Kiara Advani, first romancing Hrithik's Kabir, and later taking him on in hand-to-hand combat. Kiara finally gets some action in the film for herself, much to fans' delight. There is a glimpse of Ashutosh Rana, Kabir's handler, who seems disgusted with him and even spits on his face. He then declares: “He is a soldier. You are a soldier. And this is War!”

Fans react

A sequel to YRF's 2018 hit War, the film sees Hrithik reprise his role as Indian super spy Kabir. The film is a part of the larger YRF Spy Universe, which also includes the Tiger films, Pathaan, as well as the upcoming Alpha. War 2 will release in theatres in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil on August 14.
