Directed by Siddharth Anand, War 2 will feature Hrithik Roshan, NTR Jr, Kiara Advani, and John Abraham. Given the massive success of the first instalment, fans are eager to see if the sequel can deliver on the hype.
However, with Chhaava setting such a high bar, will War 2 be able to match, let alone surpass it?
Bollywood films have faced a tough post-pandemic period. It will be exciting to see if War 2 can recreate the magic of its predecessor and dominate the box office once again.
With Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr teaming up for the first time, War 2 box office expectations are at an all-time high. The Independence Day release could give it an edge, but Chhaava’s stunning numbers make the challenge tough. If War 2 surpasses ₹447 crore, it will solidify Bollywood’s dominance. However, the battle for box office supremacy remains unpredictable.
