War 2 early reviews hail Hrithik, Jr NTR as a sureshot hit

A day before its grand Independence Day weekend release, early buzz for War 2—starring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani—has set social media abuzz. Directed by Ayan Mukerji and serving as the sequel to YRF’s 2019 hit War, the film pits Bollywood’s “Greek God” Hrithik Roshan against Telugu superstar Jr NTR in a high-octane action spectacle, with Kiara adding glamour and charisma.

Ahead of its August 14 clash with Rajinikanth’s Coolie, early Twitter reviews suggest that War 2 is a must-watch for action enthusiasts. Many viewers are praising Hrithik’s commanding screen presence and Jr NTR’s impactful Bollywood debut. Highlights include electrifying action sequences, a much-talked-about dance face-off between the two leads, and their undeniable on-screen chemistry.

While some critics noted a routine storyline and questionable VFX—particularly in Jr NTR’s portions—fans still predict a sureshot box-office hit. One review summed it up: “#War2 has the magic of two handsome hunks, superb action, and a show-stopping dance sequence. Jr NTR & Hrithik Roshan stole the show.”
