Hrithik Roshan Breaks Silence on War 2, Praises Ayan Mukerji and Admits Doubts

His reflection follows an underwhelming run for the YRF Spy Universe entry, drawing fresh focus to the film’s fallout.

Overview

  • In his first post-release comments, Roshan wrote that "every film doesn't have to be a torture and trauma" and said he had been "shutting out" inner voices during War 2.
  • He described playing Kabir as unusually easy and said he was "taken care of so well" by director Ayan Mukerji, crediting the filmmaker’s energy on set.
  • Coverage continues to label the film a commercial underperformer, with one report citing a roughly ₹400 crore budget and about ₹236.55 crore in collections.
  • Released on August 14 in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil by Yash Raj Films, War 2 features Jr NTR, Kiara Advani, Anil Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana and Varun Badola.
  • Reports noted online trolling of Mukerji after a Durga Puja sighting with Roshan, and India Today reports Hombale Films has signaled a soon-to-be-announced pan-India collaboration with the actor.
