The action-packed blockbuster War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji and starring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani, witnessed a steady yet underwhelming performance at the Hindi box office on its second day. On Independence Day, the film showed a reasonable 60 percent growth, collecting Rs 45 crore, bringing its two-day net total to Rs 73 crore.
Despite star power and high-octane action sequences, industry experts describe the numbers as “under-par,” noting that expectations were significantly higher for a movie of this scale. While the Independence Day holiday helped boost collections, the film has yet to reach the record-breaking levels often seen with major releases starring Hrithik Roshan.
Social media reactions have been mixed. Fans praised the chemistry between Hrithik and Jr NTR, while some viewers noted that the plot felt predictable in parts, possibly affecting word-of-mouth growth. The movie’s visuals and action sequences have been widely appreciated, keeping it appealing for action film enthusiasts.
Analysts suggest that War 2 will need strong weekday occupancy and positive word-of-mouth to maintain momentum. With only moderate growth on a major holiday, the film’s overall trajectory will be closely watched in the coming days.
