Jr NTR Waves At Paparazzi As He Reaches Mumbai Ahead Of War 2 Release
Jr NTR was spotted in Mumbai ahead of War 2's release. Dressed in black, he waved at paparazzi, but reports say his visit isn't linked to the film's promotions. The biggest clash of this year is all set to hit our big screens on 14 August, and just ahead of War 2's grand release this August, Jr NTR has landed in Mumbai. But does his visit to the city involve the promotion of the action thriller co-starring Hrithik Roshan and Kiara Advani? Well, we aren't sure about that. A video of Jr NTR arriving in the city and coming out of the airport has been posted by several paparazzi pages. In the clip, the actor can be seen stepping out of the airport in a loose black T-shirt paired with matching track pants. He flaunted his lean look as he greeted the paparazzi with a 'hi" and posed for them before heading to his car. As per a report in News24, NTR's visit to Mumbai is not related to War 2 promotions. A source close to the development told the portal, 'Saiyaara proves there is no need for widespread promotion for a film to do well. Hence, for their next release, War 2, the two principal stars won't promote the film outside their home territory: NTR in Hyderabad and Hrithik in Mumbai. The product will do most of the talking when released on 14 August." Here's Everything About War 2 War 2 marks Ayan Mukerji's fourth directorial venture after Wake Up Sid, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, and Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva. Despite having a relatively short filmography, Ayan has emerged as one of the most talked-about directors in the industry, known for his visionary storytelling and distinctive style. His creative reputation has earned him a substantial paycheck of ₹32 crore for helming this YRF project. Slated for release on August 14, War 2 is being made on a massive budget of approximately ₹200 crore. With this high-octane thriller, Yash Raj Films aims to enter the coveted ₹1,000 crore club. The film is part of YRF's growing spy universe, which already boasts blockbuster hits like the Tiger franchise starring Salman Khan and Pathaan with Shah Rukh Khan. The universe is set to expand further with Alpha, the first female-led spy film in the series, featuring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh.
