Overview
- Bollywoood Hungama, which published a fact-check Saturday, quoted a source close to Hrithik Roshan who said there is no discussion about a sequel.
- Times Now and News18 echoed the reporting and said the Fighter 2 rumors are unfounded.
- The sequel buzz started after a viral Instagram post claimed filming would begin this year, followed by director Siddharth Anand’s evil-eye emoji comment.
- Fighter, released in 2024 with Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone, had modest box-office results but later drew strong interest on streaming platforms.
- Scheduling also points away from an immediate follow-up, with Roshan focused on HRX Films projects and Krrish 4 and Anand busy shooting King for a December 2026 release.
