The trailer for War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, has been cleared by CBFC with a U/A rating. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the film releases on August 14, 2025.
The trailer of War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, has officially been cleared by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The promo, which is 2 minutes and 39 seconds long, has received a U/A rating, meaning it's suitable for viewers aged 16 and above with parental guidance.
According to reports, the trailer is expected to be released online by July 24 or 25, around three weeks before the film's big theatrical release on August 14, 2025.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji, War 2 is the sequel to the 2019 hit War and is part of the YRF Spy Universe, which also includes Pathaan and Tiger 3. Hrithik Roshan will return as Kabir, a secret agent, while Jr NTR, who is making his Bollywood debut, is expected to play the villain. The film also stars Kiara Advani in a key role.
The teaser, which released earlier, gave fans a taste of the action, and the full trailer is said to include intense fight scenes and emotional moments. There's also talk of a dance-off between the two stars, though nothing has been confirmed yet.
Interestingly, Hrithik and Jr NTR will not promote the film together. They are expected to handle promotions separately.
War 2 is not just a big release on its own. It also sets the stage for another film in the spy universe titled Alpha, which stars Alia Bhatt. While some reports suggest Alia might appear briefly in War 2, there has been no official word on it.
Taking to his Instagram handle, Ayan Mukerji recently shared the poster featuring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR and Kiara Advani. 'The biggest showdown of the year loading… #30DaysToWar2 #War2 only in theatres from 14th August. Releasing in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil," read the caption. On July 15, Kiara Advani welcomed her first baby girl with Sidharth Malhotra. War 2 will be her first film after pregnancy.
Take a look here:
Backed by Aditya Chopra's Yash Raj Films, the movie is the sixth instalment of the YRF Spy Universe and will be hitting the big screens on August 14. With just a month left for its release, the makers are now all set to unveil the film's official trailer.
The movie is the sequel to the 2019 action thriller, War and marks the return of Hrithik as Agent Kabir. This time, he is fighting another Indian agent, Vikram (played by Jr NTR), who is the new addition to the franchise. It will be released in Hindi and Telugu.
