The buzz around Yash Raj Films’ latest spy actioner, War 2, continues as fans eagerly await its digital debut. Directed by Ayan Mukerji and starring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani, the film hit theatres on August 14, 2025. While the movie had high expectations, it fell short at the box office. Now, viewers who missed the theatrical experience can catch the action-packed thriller on streaming platforms.
War 2 OTT Release Details
Netflix India officially announced that War 2 will begin streaming on October 9, 2025. The film will be available in multiple languages, including Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil, catering to audiences across regions. In its social media post, Netflix highlighted the intensity of the film, describing it as “double the rage, double the rampage,” generating excitement among fans, some of whom expressed their anticipation with emojis while others responded with humorous remarks.
This release marks a notable move for YRF, as War 2 becomes the first installment in the YRF Spy Universe series to stream exclusively on Netflix. Previous entries, including Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, War, Pathaan, and Tiger 3, were made available on Amazon Prime Video.
Cast, Plot, and Crew
War 2 is the sixth film in YRF’s Spy Universe and serves as a direct sequel to Siddharth Anand’s 2019 blockbuster War. Hrithik Roshan reprises his role as Kabir Dhaliwal, a former RAW agent, while Jr NTR makes his highly anticipated Hindi debut as Special Units Officer Vikram Chelapathi. The story revolves around the government deploying Vikram to track down Kabir after the latter goes rogue, posing a serious threat to national security. Kiara Advani plays Kavya, and the film also features Anil Kapoor and Ashutosh Rana in key roles.
In a recent Instagram post, Hrithik reflected on his experience, noting that portraying Kabir felt effortless due to his familiarity with the character. He praised the director, Ayan Mukerji, for creating a supportive environment on set, which allowed him to focus entirely on his performance.
Box Office and Critical Reception
During its theatrical run, War 2 collected approximately ₹364.25 crore globally, falling short of the original War’s lifetime collection of ₹471 crore. Critics and audiences had mixed reactions, praising the performances and action sequences but pointing out flaws in the plot and narrative structure. Despite this, the film’s post-credits scene teased the next Spy Universe installment, Alpha, which will feature Alia Bhatt, Sharvari, and Bobby Deol.
