Anupam Bhattacharya calls being part of ‘War 2' is a career-defining moment
Reflecting on his involvement in the film, Anupam described the experience as a 'different kind of validation.' He emphasized that being part of a YRF production significantly impacts an actor's career trajectory. 'It changes your market positioning and opens doors for better prospects—both within YRF and in the larger industry. I'm hopeful this will lead to more exciting work,' he said.
Anupam fondly recalled shooting on Diwali day in 2024, calling the post-shoot celebrations especially memorable. 'That moment—working on such a big project and then celebrating Diwali with the team—really stayed with me,' he shared, describing the experience as both fulfilling and auspicious.
The actor also highlighted the value of every role within a cinematic universe, regardless of its screen time. 'Even the smallest parts have their significance, and often, they're the ones that people unexpectedly remember. It feels gratifying to be part of something that big, where your presence adds to the mythos of the universe,' he noted.
War 2 continues the journey of Indian agent Kabir Dhaliwal (played by Hrithik Roshan), who now faces off against a rogue agent, played by Jr NTR. Kiara Advani joins the franchise as the female lead, while the sequel expands YRF's spy universe with deeper narratives and broader global stakes.
With rising expectations and a release date locked in, War 2 is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious Bollywood projects of the year—and Anupam Bhattacharya's addition only adds to the buzz.

Vir Das: Fool Volume Trailer Promises Chaos, Comedy And Cross-Continental Sass
Last Updated: Vir Das returns with his new Netflix special, "Vir Das: Fool Volume," premiering July 18. Filmed in Mumbai, New York, and London, it showcases his signature multi-city format. After charming the world (and bagging an International Emmy while at it), Vir Das is back to what he does best — this time louder, bolder, and funnier than ever! Premiering on July 18, the trailer of his upcoming show Vir Das: Fool Volume is finally out. Filmed across Mumbai, New York, and London, this one's not just a comedy special, it's a cross-continental rollercoaster! View this post on Instagram A post shared by Netflix India (@netflix_in) This Netflix special reintroduces the comedian's signature multi-city format that stitches together stages, cultures, and moods. What's different this time around, you ask? Just weeks before filming the biggest show of his career, Vir lost his voice — literally and creatively. What came next was Fool Volume: his most self-aware work to date. Armed with his trademark blend of wit, heart, and just enough irreverence to keep your parents nervous, Vir takes on everything from silence and self-doubt to rediscovering joy. It's a comedy that doesn't just punch up, it reaches out. Talking about his new special, Vir Das says, 'This special is a journey across countries, cultures, and a whole lot of internal chaos. For me, comedy has always been more than just punchlines — it's about connection. Whether you're in London, New York, or Mumbai, laughter sounds the same. This special is a celebration of that shared language — of finding joy in the chaos, meaning in the absurd, and kindness in the noise. If someone watches it and feels a little lighter, a little more understood, or just laughs until their stomach hurts — that's the magic I'm chasing." While sharing the official trailer on his Instagram, Vir wrote, 'Indian comedy gets loud and it's not messing around. Shot in multiple cities across the world, International Emmy-winning comedian Vir Das is back to make you laugh, think, and feel all the feels with his brand-new special. Watch Vir Das: Fool Volume, shot by an Indian crew on three continents, out July 18, only on Netflix." Earlier, while announcing one of the biggest shows of his life, Vir had shared, 'Netflix and I were about to shoot a special with a different theme. The universe had other plans. I lost my voice two months before that show. This is a show rewritten in silence and performed without rehearsal across the world. Turns out the voice in your head is way crazier than the one in your throat." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vir Das (@virdas) This marks Vir's fifth Netflix special, making him the first Indian comedian to reach that milestone. With global successes like Abroad Understanding, Losing It, For India, and his International Emmy-winning special Landing, each show has pushed Indian comedy further onto the world stage.
