Following the monumental success of Pathaan and Tiger 3, Yash Raj Films is betting big on War 2 to take its spy franchise to a global scale. The film marks the sixth instalment in the interconnected universe that began with Ek Tha Tiger (2012), and for the first time, it will have an IMAX premiere across continents, a major milestone for an Indian action film.

While War (2019) explored Kabir’s descent into rogue territory, War 2 will reportedly plunge deeper into his next covert operation, as he embarks on a deadly mission to neutralise a new threat.
War 2 also serves as Jr NTR’s much-awaited Hindi film debut. Known for his magnetic screen presence and commanding action sequences in Telugu cinema, Jr NTR’s role is expected to add heft and grit to the narrative. Kiara Advani, meanwhile, makes her entry into the YRF Spy Universe, reportedly portraying a character central to Kabir’s mission.
Cameos, Crossovers, and Cinematic Synergy
In what is being kept as a closely guarded surprise, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan are reportedly set to make impactful cameo appearances. According to a News18 report, Salman’s character Tiger will play a crucial narrative link in the evolving spy timeline, further weaving the interconnected threads of YRF’s ambitious storytelling.
Produced by Aditya Chopra under the YRF banner, War 2 is slated to hit cinemas worldwide on August 14, 2025. The film will be released in multiple formats, including IMAX.
