Last Updated:
Produced by Aditya Chopra and directed by Ayan Mukerji, War 2 pits NTR against Hrithik Roshan.
With NTR's look in the upcoming film 'War 2", stylist Anaita Shroff Adajania said she wanted to keep it real but still retain the undeniable strength and masculinity the superstar carries effortlessly.
Talking about how she wanted to showcase NTR's macho-ness in War 2 and Anaita said: 'Working with NTR for the first time on War 2 was a discovery and an absolute joy. He walks into a room and there's this instant shift, like a current of energy that runs through everyone. It's not loud or performative— it's magnetic."
She added: 'He has that rare ability to charge the atmosphere just by being present. And then you see the smile, the warmth, and this deep, quiet confidence in the character he's playing. He knew exactly who he was from the start."
The wife of filmmaker Homi Adjania said: 'With his look, I wanted to ground him—keep it real—but still retain that undeniable strength and masculinity he carries so effortlessly. There's a rawness to his presence, like a human machine operating with purpose.
'That translated into a wardrobe built on power and simplicity: leather, rugged jackets, strong silhouettes. There's no fuss, no excess," she said.
'Just a man who means business. His styling reflects that: direct, impactful, and unapologetically no-nonsense," added the stylist.
Produced by Aditya Chopra and directed by Ayan Mukerji, War 2 pits NTR against Hrithik Roshan. Kiara Advani plays the female lead. War 2 is set to release on August 14 in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
The film is a sequel to the 2019 blockbuster 'War," an action thriller directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films. It served as the third instalment in the YRF Spy Universe.
It had Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff in the lead roles, with Vaani Kapoor and Ashutosh Rana in pivotal roles. It was based on the story of an Indian RAW agent on an assignment to eliminate his former mentor who has gone rogue.

Remember Karisma Kapoor's sister in Coolie No 1? Worked with Govinda, Salman Khan, suddenly disappeared after few films, is now..., her name is... 90s Actress Kanchan became a prominent name in Hindi, Telugu and Malayalam industries. She rose to fame after appearing alongside Karsima Kapoor and Govinda in Coolie No 1 . Released in 1995, the film became a major box office success and turned a cult classic in Hindi cinema's history. Kanchan played Karisma's younger sister in the film, and is still remembered for her outstanding performance in romantic comedy drama. She won hearts with her on-screen persona, and later collaborated with other stars such as Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan. Despite this, she failed to sustain longer in Bollywood. Why Kanchan failed to grab success in Bollywood? Kanchan was a well-know name in the industry, and also starred in hit films like Sanam Bewafa, Kranti Kshetra, Jumana and Paandav . She starred as a lead actress opposite Akshay Kumar in Amaanat , but the film failed to become a success, and couldn't save her career. Her innocence won audiences hearts, but gradually she lost her charm in the industry. According to reports, the superstardom of other actresses like Karisma Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi overshadowed her work, and she was unable to get more films in the industry. Where is Kanchan now? In the 90s, film producers and directors were majorly in search of bold actresses, instead of sweet and simple. Due to this, Kanchan's career destroyed, and she gradually faded from the limelight. She even tried her hands in the South cinema after not getting work in Bollywood. Kanchan worked in a Malayalam film Gandharvam, opposite superstar Mohanlal. The film became a huge hit at the box office. She also starred in Ajith Kumar's debut film Pustakam. Thereafter, Kanchan was seen in many popular South films, but still that couldn't help her survive. She slowly moved away from that industry as well, despite achieving considerable success. Today, no one knows about her whereabouts. Kanchan's career is a sobering example that how actors get easily replaced, despite their best efforts to sustain longer in the industry.
