'War 2', the spy action thriller co-starring Jr NTR and Hrithik Roshan, will head to the theatres on August 14, 2025. The postponement of the release date suggests that Tarak might not have any theatrical release after Koratala Siva's 'Devara' hits the cinemas on April 5 next year (2024) until 'War 2' in late 2025.
"YRF's Spy Universe received a setback with 'Tiger 3' grossing less than Rs 500 Cr. The makers might be in a stock-taking phase and that's why they might have delayed 'War 2'," a trade analyst analyzed.
The film went on the floors recently without Hrithik and Tarak participating in an action schedule. Directed by Ayan Mukherji, the film's budget is said to be Rs 200 Cr.
The YRF Spy Universe consists of 'Ek Tha Tiger', 'Tiger Zinda Hai', 'War', 'Pathaan', and the recent 'Tiger 3'. 'War 2' will be the sixth one in the franchise.
