New Mom Kiara Advani Is All Set For War 2 Trailer; Posts BTS Pic With Hrithik Roshan
Kiara Advani is entering a new phase in both her personal and professional lives. While she is experiencing the joy of motherhood on one hand, on the other is the release of her first high-octane action film, War 2, co-starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR. A day before the film's trailer release, Kiara posted a rare behind-the-scenes photo from War 2 shoot, featuring Hrithik and the film's director, Ayan Mukerji.
In the photo, Kiara Advani looks super-fit in a tank top and trousers. Her look was amplified with boots. Hrithik Roshan, dressed in a casual shirt and jeans, posed with Ayan. 'All set for tomorrow", wrote an excited Kiara, as she shared a seemingly throwback photo from the film's shoot set abroad. Take a look:
Earlier this week, makers revealed that War 2 trailer will be released on July 25. YRF took to its Instagram handle and shared the poster along with an announcement note. 'ANNOUNCEMENT: #WAR2 trailer out on July 25th. #War2 is set to release in Hindi, Telugu & Tamil on August 14th in cinemas worldwide!" As soon as the date was revealed, fans reacted. One of the fans wrote, 'Major Kabir Dhaliwal vs The Lethal Force Agen Vikram.' Another wrote, 'Can't wait."
Directed by Ayan Mukerji, War 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the 2019 blockbuster War, and the sixth installment in Yash Raj Films' ambitious Spy Universe – home to Pathaan and Tiger 3. The film marks a major milestone for the franchise, featuring Hrithik Roshan reprising his role as Kabir, the enigmatic secret agent, and Jr NTR making his Bollywood debut in what is widely speculated to be a villainous role. Kiara Advani also joins the high-octane ensemble in a significant part.
The teaser, released earlier, offered fans a thrilling glimpse of what's to come, and buzz around the full trailer hints at intense action sequences, emotional undercurrents, and even a possible dance face-off between the film's two leading men – though this has yet to be confirmed.
Interestingly, Hrithik and Jr NTR will not be promoting the film together and are expected to undertake promotional duties separately.
War 2 is not just a standalone action spectacle. It's also a strategic setup for the next chapter in the YRF Spy Universe – Alpha, starring Alia Bhatt. While rumours suggest Alia might make a brief appearance in War 2, there has been no official confirmation on the cameo.
Recently, director Ayan Mukerji took to Instagram to unveil a striking new 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," he wrote in the caption.
Adding to the buzz is Kiara Advani's return to the big screen – this will be her first film release following the birth of her daughter with husband Sidharth Malhotra on July 15. She was seen wearing a golden bikini in the film's teaser.
Backed by Aditya Chopra's Yash Raj Films, War 2 is set to roar into theatres on August 14, just in time for Independence Day, promising a grand, multilingual cinematic showdown that's poised to shake up the spy universe once again.

Dhan celebrates 11 years of ‘Namathu Mannvasam' magazine
Dhan Foundation in Madurai celebrated the 11th anniversary of their monthly Tamil magazine – 'Namathu Mannvasam' – here on Monday. The magazine, retaining its unique identity, has kept up with its promise of promoting mostly new women writers and readers, said M.P. Vasimalai, Executive Director of Dhan Foundation. As reading habit among students has gradually diminished, the magazine should produce engaging contents based on Tamil literature found only in bits and pieces in school syllabuses, he added. When some of the important and essential Tamil literatures were present just as stand-alone poems in subject books, the students would barely think of reaching out to the whole work of literature, Mr. Vasimalai stated. 'By producing content in the form of story reading, the students, who are the target readers, could be largely engaged,' he added. Further, speaking about the magazine's novel effort, he said that the writers who contributed to the magazine were mostly ground-level workers. Through this, the magazine has proved that it could sustain the content that comes organically from working class people, he added. Appreciating the tremendous hard work behind every published magazine, he said that publishing houses should also consider coming up with at least five translated works of writers which have hardly reached the public. Madhan Kumar, of Padiparivu Pathipagam, said the magazine which was being published in Tamil, Kannada and Marathi, is to be expanded to other languages like Odia and Telugu. 'As a uniqueness of the magazine, of the 500 writers, 200 of them were women. Also, every year's March month edition would be a by-women and for-women edition,' he noted. Adhering to the famous philosopher Antonio Gramsci's perspective about organic intellectual, he said, 'The magazine runs solely on the organic intellectuals - women writers also the field workers.' Magazine's editor B. Thirumalai recalling the efforts of the magazine to continue its work during Covid-19 pandemic, said that even the mainstream magazines could not sustain during the critical few months of the pandemic. 'It was possible because of the readers who pushed us to expand our horizons out of our comfort zones,' he added. Now, the aim of the magazine would be reaching 50,000 copies from the current 25,000 copies and their work in the following days would be towards that, he said. During the event, a compilation of the 12 magazines was released.
