Young Tiger NTR to show power as spy in War 2

NTR Jr. is set to join forces with Hrithik Roshan in the highly anticipated sequel, War 2, marking a pivotal addition to the expansive YRF Spy Universe curated by Aditya Chopra. Amidst much anticipation, speculation has been rife regarding NTR Jr.’s role in the film, especially considering the precedent set by the original War film, which featured a showdown between Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, with the latter portraying a negative character. While initial reports suggested NTR Jr. might assume the role of the primary antagonist, exclusive insights from Pinkvilla reveal that he will portray an Indian Agent in War 2.

Aditya Chopra envisions significant plans for NTR Jr.’s character within the YRF Spy Universe, positioning him alongside stalwarts like Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, and Shah Rukh Khan. A source closely associated with the project shares, “NTR Jr. emerges as the latest addition to the league of Indian Agents within the YRF Spy Universe, following the footsteps of Salman Khan (Tiger), Hrithik Roshan (Kabir), and Shah Rukh Khan (Pathaan). His character promises to offer a fresh perspective, and both Aditya Chopra and Ayan Mukerji are eager to explore the dynamic between Hrithik and NTR in War 2. Each character in the film is crafted with multiple layers, ensuring an element of surprise for the audience.”

Furthermore, it’s revealed that Aditya Chopra has extensive plans for NTR Jr.’s character across future installments of the YRF Spy Universe. “The vision is to establish the first truly Pan-Indian cinematic universe, where talent from various industries converge to create compelling narratives. NTR Jr.’s journey extends beyond War 2, with spin-offs and cameo appearances slated for upcoming films. It’s a strategic long-term collaboration aimed at introducing NTR Jr. to Hindi cinema in the most impactful manner,” adds the source.

War 2 is slated for release during the Independence Day weekend of 2025, marking the sixth installment in the YRF Spy Universe. Following its release, audiences can anticipate the upcoming Alia Bhatt and Sharvari starrer directed by Shiv Rawail, followed by Pathaan 2, headlined by Shah Rukh Khan. The cinematic journey culminates in the much-awaited clash between Salman Khan and SRK in Tiger vs Pathaan. As production for War 2 progresses, fans eagerly await its arrival on the silver screen, expected to wrap up by the latter half of 2024.
