Naga Vamsi Blames YRF for War 2 Misfire After Saying He ‘Trusted Them Blindly’

The remarks underscore the risk regional distributors shoulder on costly dubbed releases in Hindi-led markets.

Overview

  • During promotions for his next film, Naga Vamsi said he and Jr NTR trusted Aditya Chopra and YRF blindly and called War 2 a misfire on the producers’ side.
  • He stressed that he only distributed the Telugu version and said he bore heavy online trolling despite not producing the film.
  • Compiled box-office reports place War 2 at about ₹236.55 crore net in India and ₹364.35 crore worldwide against a reported ~₹400 crore budget after a strong opening and sharp drops.
  • Coverage consistently shows a wide market split, with reports citing roughly ₹214 crore from Hindi versus about ₹63 crore gross from the Telugu dub.
  • Some outlets report he bought Telugu rights near ₹80 crore and recovered around ₹35 crore, figures not independently confirmed, and no formal response from YRF is reported.
