Has Ayan Mukerji put 'Brahmastra' sequel on hold for Ranbir Kapoor's 'Dhoom 4'?
With WAR 2 nearing its release, all eyes are now on director Ayan Mukerji, to see what his next big film will be.

Casting for other key roles, including the female lead, is said to be underway, with production expected to begin in April 2026. The film is tentatively set for a 2027 theatrical release.

In no time, the teaser went viral. The teaser showcases Hrithik Roshan reprising his role as Agent Kabir. Jr NTR, making his Bollywood debut, steps in as the antagonist. The video features adrenaline-pumping sequences, including sword fights, car chases, and hand-to-hand combat. Kiara Advani's bikini scene is also grabbing attention. She will be romancing with Hrithik Roshan. A source close to the development revealed that Jr NTR's role is being treated as a long-term investment in the spy franchise, much like Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan and Salman Khan's Tiger. 'His character won't just be limited to War 2. Expect standalone films, spin-offs, and major crossover appearances," the insider shared, hinting at a multi-film presence for the Telugu icon in the YRF cinematic universe.
