Even before its first ticket is officially sold, War 2 has shattered a massive all-time record, signaling the arrival of a true box office tsunami.

This new record proves that the anticipation for the action spectacle has reached a fever pitch, surpassing the hype generated by some of the biggest blockbusters in recent memory.
Grand War 2 Event Creates Massive Buzz
Hyderabad buzzed with excitement today as the team of War 2 hosted the film’s sole promotional event in the city with the film’s lead stars Jr NTR and Hrithik Roshan. This marked both actors’ first public appearance together while promoting the film. Fans travelled from various states, filling the air with their enthusiastic chants and cheers, super-excited to catch a glimpse of both superstars. During the event, Hrithik Roshan was all praise for Jr NTR, and he revealed what he learnt from him.
During the pre-release event in Hyderabad, Hrithik Roshan added an emotional touch by sharing his experiences working with Jr NTR. He noted the similarities in their careers and praised NTR for his dedication, calling him a ‘one-take final-take star.’ Hrithik mentioned that he has learned the importance of giving 100 percent to each shot from NTR, a lesson he intends to carry forward in his future projects.
“I see a lot of myself in Tarak. We have had very similar journeys for 25 years now, and I think Tarak sees a little bit of himself in me also. It is true when they say that he is a one-take final-take star. On set, Tarak, I have not just observed you, but I have learnt from you. I have learnt how to go into a shot 100% — not 99.99%, not 99.999, but 100%. Which is why when he comes out of a shot, there is no judgement on me. He will not even check the shot because he knows he has given everything to it. And I will apply that in my future films. Tarak, thank you for teaching me that,” he said.

“War 2 is going to be a game-changer. I want to take a moment to thank Hrithik Roshan & Jr NTR for doing this. War 2 is going to be a surprise that all of you are going to love. You are also going to enjoy Jr NYR to the fullest in the film!” said Akshye Widhwani from YRF.
