When the announcement of War 2 came with JR NTR in the film, fans of NTR felt disappointed for a couple of reasons. Firstly, there was concern because the actor was expected to play a negative role. Secondly, Hrithik Roshan had faced a string of recent flops.
Despite these worries, Hrithik Roshan’s latest movie, Fighter, has proven to be a success at the box office. Although the numbers didn’t reach the anticipated heights, those who watched the film genuinely enjoyed it.
In contrast to Tiger 3, which received mixed reviews and performed poorly at the box office, Fighter’s positive outcome has brought relief to Hrithik Roshan, director Siddharth Anand, and the entire team.
Following the uncertainty surrounding the SPY Universe after Tiger 3, Fighter’s success has instilled confidence in Yash Raj Films. They are now gearing up for the next installment, WAR 2, featuring Hrithik Roshan and JR NTR.
Hrithik Roshan, who faced disappointment after the audience didn’t connect with his last movie, Vikram Vedha, must be thrilled with Fighter’s box office performance. The film has also earned him praise for his role as Shamsher Pathania. This turn of events has changed the mood among JR NTR fans. Initially upset until Fighter’s release, they are now pleased with the result, as Hrithik’s newfound success is expected to enhance the collections of War 2.
With the positive vibes from Fighter, the stage is set for War 2. The success and appreciation of Fighter will undoubtedly contribute to the excitement and anticipation for the film. Hrithik and NTR are scheduled to join the sets of War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji, in March or April 2024.
