In the ever-evolving landscape of Indian cinema not every sequel manages to capture the magic of its predecessor. The best example can be stated as Hrithik Roshan Jr NTRs War 2 release despite its star-studded cast and grand production seems to have missed the mark both critically and commercially. The film anticipated as a major blockbuster has faced challenges in resonating with audiences and critics alike. How much has War 2 made at box office? Serving as a sequel to the 2019 hit War this installment stars Hrithik Roshan reprising his role as Kabir alongside Jr NTR making his Bollywood debut as the antagonist. Kiara Advani also joins the cast as the female lead. Despite the high expectations the film has struggled to make a significant impact at the box office. Reports indicate that War 2 has somehow managed to reach the 350 crore club after 14 days which while substantial falls short of the benchmarks set by its predecessor and other recent blockbusters. War 2 crosses the lifetime collection of Adipurush and Drishyam Adipurush earned around Rs 353 crore worldwide (Rs 305 crore India + Rs 48.5 crore overseas) while Drishyam 2 grossed Rs 342.31 crore globally (Rs 239.67 crore India + Rs 59.5 crore overseas). Both had contrasting receptions—Adipurush faced backlash whereas Drishyam 2 was praised. War 2 has now surpassed both collecting approximately Rs 351 crore worldwide but despite the numbers it received mixed reviews and didnt meet franchise expectations. More about War 2 War 2 continues the saga within the YRF Spy Universe following the events of its predecessor. The narrative delves deeper into the complexities of espionage loyalty and betrayal with Hrithik Roshans Kabir facing new challenges and adversaries. Jr NTRs character introduces a fresh dynamic adding intensity and depth to the storyline. Their on-screen confrontation has been a highlight drawing significant attention from audiences. Story Highlights Despite massive hype War 2 failed to recreate the magic of its 2019 predecessor receiving mixed reviews from critics and audiences. After 14 days it crossed Rs 351 crore globally managing to beat Adipurush and Drishyam 2 in total earnings but not in impact. The films average reception has raised concerns over the future of the YRF Spy Universe. Even with Hrithik Roshan Jr NTR and Kiara Advani the film couldn’t overcome weak storytelling and execution. Despite solid star presence and a grand scale War 2 couldnt quite win over audiences or critics suggesting that franchise fatigue and storytelling issues may have held it back from true blockbuster status.
