Mumbai: The much-awaited trailer of Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR’s upcoming action drama ‘War 2’ was unveiled on Friday.
The 2-minute 35-second long trailer begins with Kabir (Hrithik Roshan) walking in with a wolf by his side. He shares that he has sacrificed his identity, his family and home to serve the nation.
Jr NTR is then introduced as a killing machine, a weapon made for war.
While Hrithik continues to narrate his story, Kiara Advani comes into the scene.
The on-screen couple’s passionate kiss and an intense fight sequence will leave the audience floored.
However, while the trailer left netizens impressed with Hrithik and Kiara, they felt Jr NTR was a complete misfit in the war drama.
“I will say Im no kiara fan but the fight and overall sequences she killed. I am honestly most looking forward to seeing what she does – very promising overall from the few glimpses,” one social media user posted.
Another person wrote, “This is good! Kiara looks good too and I’m super impressed. If alpha is anything like this. Which i know adi will make sure that’ll make bank too. Alia will likely get a big win. It pains me why the fuck was DP made a pakistani spy and not an indian 😭😭😭.”
One person quipped, “Fight btw Kiara N Hrithik 🙌🔥.”
Another comment read, “Hrithik is phenomenal in the trailer! 🔥 His action scenes are next level, and the Geeta shlok as dialogue gave me goosebumps. 🙌 VFX looks decent, and overall War 2 feels truly promising. Can’t wait! 🎬✨.”
“Pleasantly surprised after the bad teaser. The dialogues pull up the trailer. Hrithik Kiara fight scene was a good surprise. Ayan might not have messed up this time,” said one user.
Unhappy with Jr NTR’s character, a netizen claimed, “Jr NTR looks complete misfit. No aura, no looks nothing. Vfx look terrible like some videogame. Pathan was average, worked well and earned lot’s due to srk. War2 looks below average and might earn something due to hrithik and WAR franchise name. Nothing can save this,”
Another wrote, “My expectations were so low from teaser & other assets that I actually liked the trailer. Everything seems awesome except VFX & JrNTR overacting.”
One comment read, “Wtf is up wirh NTR’s body ? That’s clearly VFX. Doesn’t look remotely close to RRR.”
Directed by Ayaan Mukherji and produced by Yash Raj Films, ‘War 2’ will hit theatres on August 14.
