Yash Raj Films on Tuesday (May 20) unveiled the teaser of its upcoming Spy Universe film War 2, headlined by Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR and Kiara Advani. The film, helmed by Brahmastra-maker Ayan Mukerji, is set to release in theatres on August 14, 2025.
The teaser begins with a voiceover by NTR’s antagonist, addressing Hrithik’s character Kabir. “I’ve been watching you for a while, Kabir. India’s best soldier. RAW’s best agent. You were, but not anymore. You do not know me, but you will…soon,” he says. We then see glimpses of fight sequences on a train, plane, boats and inside an ice cave — all of which promise a high-octane spy action film on cards. The final moments of the promo tease a fistfight between Kabir and NTR’s mystery character.
Notably, Kabir made an appearance in the post-credit scene of Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif starrer Tiger 3. The upcoming film is a sequel to the 2019 action thriller film War, which starred Hrithik, Tiger Shroff and Vani Kapoor in the lead.
Directed by Siddharth Anand, the first War film was a high-octane action drama that minted ₹200 crores within seven days of its release in 2019. It’s touted to be one of the highest-grossing Hindi films of that year.
War 2 has a story written by producer Aditya Chopra and a screenplay written by Shridhar Raghavan. With music scored by Pritam, the film has cinematography by Benjamin Jasper and editing by Aarif Sheikh. Chopra produced the film under his Yash Raj Films banner.
