War 2, the highly anticipated spy action thriller from Yash Raj Films, is all set to release on August 14. Starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr., the film is part of YRF’s growing spy universe and marks the Bollywood debut of Telugu superstar NTR.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji, War 2 is being mounted on a massive scale, and the makers are pulling out all stops to ensure it gets the widest release ever for a Hindi film. One of the biggest highlights of the film is an ultra-energetic dance number featuring Hrithik and NTR — two of Indian cinema’s most celebrated dancers.
Fans have been eagerly waiting to watch the electrifying chemistry and footwork of these two stars. However, in a surprising move, YRF Chairman Aditya Chopra has decided not to release the full song online. Instead, only a short glimpse of the song will be unveiled on YouTube, with the entire sequence reserved exclusively for theatres.
According to an exclusive report by Pinkvilla, Aditya Chopra is aiming to replicate a strategy he previously employed with songs like Kajra Re (Bunty Aur Babli) and the title track of Dhoom 3, where the full versions were unveiled only in cinemas. The idea is to build curiosity and drive footfall to theatres, keeping the dance number as a premium theatrical experience.
A source quoted in the report said: “Aditya Chopra wants people to experience the magic of seeing Hrithik Roshan and NTR dancing together only on the big screen. The visuals are stunning, and he wants audiences to be surprised when they see them in theatres.”
With the film’s release just around the corner, anticipation is sky-high. Between the star power, action, and now the exclusive dance spectacle, War 2 promises to be a cinematic event like no other.
Stay tuned for the teaser drop — and mark your calendars for August 14!
