Yash Raj Films Drops Explosive War 2 Teaser — Fans Call for SRK, As Hrithik vs Jr NTR Fan War Erupts
Yash Raj Films released the long-awaited teaser for War 2, and the action isn’t only on-screen — it’s raging in the comments! Both Hrithik Roshan’s and Jr NTR’s fans are currently in a digital duel battling it out over who had a better presence on-screen. However, in the midst of all the fanfare and the side, there is one name continually being dropped as a demand — Shah Rukh Khan as Pathaan.
Hrithik Roshan vs Jr NTR: The Fan War Is Real
We got a teaser that was meant to encourage fans to come together, yet what we have is a war in War 2 — at least in the comments section. Social media is lit up over split opinions as fans of RRR star Jr NTR and Krrish 3 star Hrithik Roshan hash it out over who had a better presence in the teaser.
The teaser dropped on Jr NTR’s birthday — a huge strategic advantage to ensure that Jr NTR’s fanbase is gathered and ready to unleash a social media assault. Meanwhile, Hrithik’s fan base was not going to let the War OG come in quietly. We now have a viral comment war that ramped up quicker than the action in the film.
SRK’s Pathaan Cameo Trends Online
Unbelievably, something that started as a two-man fan skirmish has morphed into a full-blown campaign for Shah Rukh Khan to return as Pathaan. Since the YRF Spy Universe is connected, fans are hoping SRK would swoop in and escalate the situation even further, especially considering Salman Khan’s Tiger appears briefly teased in the promo.
What further exacerbated the pleading is that Ayan Mukerji is attached to the project as director. Mukerji already executed an iconic SRK cameo in Brahmastra Part One: Shiva, which created the idea that there is a possibility that lightning could strike twice.
“Bring back Pathaan!”
“SRK + Hrithik + NTR = Desi Avengers!”
“No Pathaan? No party.”
These are just a sampling from the flurry of viral commentary that is circulating around YouTube, X (Twitter now), and Instagram.
Kiara Advani’s Brief Cameo Grabs Eyeballs
Even considering all of the testosterone-fuelled action, Kiara Advani had her moment. Though her screen time in the teaser is minimal, fans were quick to call out her “screen-stealing” moment. Then some fans will hope that she has a larger, more important role in the final cut — one that presents her beyond just eye-candy!
War 2: The YRF Spy Universe Moves On
Ayan Mukerji is launching the next chapter of the YRF Spy Universe with War 2. Following Pathaan and Tiger 3, War 2 is being positioned for release in theatres August 14, 2025, due to the pair of national holidays on the Indian calendar — Independence Day and the holiday week surrounding it.
It must be true that War 2 has the scale, the star power, and the universe to define the future of the genre — and based on the audience responses to the teaser, it’s received viral attention already.

BoxOfficeWorldwide Verdict
The War 2 teaser is not only building anticipation for the release, but it’s also creating a type of digital warfare. Hrithik Roshan vs Jr NTR is already shaping up to be the most publicised and anticipated publicly documented on-screen rivalry of the year, as fans create as much as they consume.
But the loudest online voice right now is reserved for Shah Rukh Khan’s return as Pathaan. YRF might have given away a teaser on the 20th, but the explosion is happening as we type.
