The War 2 movie has been out and making a buzz with negative reviews. It has successfully made its earnings on the first day and is in full swing on day 1, earning 52 crores gross. Will War 2 continue its rhythm, or will it not live up to the expectation? YRF marked and listed in the history of its opening in the movie. There are mixed reviews from the viewers. “Full-on-Bollywood Masala”. That means it has almost everything, from action to love stories. Some people also call it “Pure bing screen paisa vasool entertainment.”

However, I’m worried about the movie’s commercial prospects. According to KRK, the purpose of this Bollywood production is to discredit the name itself. This film is among the worst in Bollywood. The film’s second-day earnings surpassed 100 crores. Many of the film lovers appreciated the song “Aavan Jaavan”. Let’s dive into what’s good and what’s bad here.

The song “Aavan Jaavan” is appreciated by Bollywood fans. It has received 58,982,515 views on YouTube.

War 2 Mixed Review: Will it survive three more weeks?

The chemistry between them looks amazing. The costume director Anaita Shroff Adajania and Niharika Jolly did a really great job along with Shipra Singh Acharya as make-up designer. The song looks refreshing and well put together by music director Pritam, singer Arijit Singh, Nikhita and Amitabh B. The efforts put in by the entire team in the song and the overall contribution are worth praising. You can listen to the song here.

However, the climax of the movie was so good that it shocked reviewers, earning them 2 stars in their reviews. The movie did well in the first two days and crossed the 100 crore mark yesterday. Therefore, all the efforts go to three main actors: Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR and Kiara Advani. Thus, because of these three, it was able to enter into this marked. The already crowded space where the poetic love story of the fierce Dalit student of Siddhant Chaturvedi and another two romantic birds found in Sayaara had already sold just a few weeks ago. In 2024, Hrithik did well in Fighter, directed by Siddharth Anand. It was released on 25 Jan 2025. A 250 crore budgeted film total grossed 344.46 worldwide; thus, War 2 is expected to cross 500 crores in the next 7 days.

Do you think negative reviews save the film and live up to the expectations? The film managed to earn 52.4 crores on its first day and made 100 crores on its second day. If it continues the rhythm, it could even reach 1000 crores in just a week’s time. The story may get changed or live up to expectations, but there is a reason why it has made 100 crore. The movie was released on 14th August, getting a long weekend crowd, and that is the earning opportunity they grabbed.

As a result of holidays and long weekends, the prediction may fall through, and it may be difficult to survive with the same vigour for the next week with such down reviews. Let’s get straight to the reviews from the experts. Radhika Sharma from NDTV: “This sequel takes the viewers on a journey to at least 10 countries, stuffing episodes from six of them in the post credits. Read the full War 2 review here.

In addition to her review, it seems there are two Indian cinemas, one from Kollywood and one from Bollywood, to form one nation’s biggest international brand to represent India at the international film festivals. Therefore, we need to find another great name. Hrithik looked like a ferocious warrior in his avatar in this sequel; on the other hand, JR NTR intelligence officer, Vikram Chelapathy. Hence, Duo reminded me of Jay and Viru from Sholay, and it completed 50 years yesterday. I felt a great tribute to the movie.

Another review from Subra Gupta from the Indian Express gave 2 stars, saying “Hrithik Roshan’s spy Kabir gets an impossible task in the latest spy univerrse film — to keep us glued to the screen. Jr NTR seems to be missing his fizzy RRR co-star Ram Charan while Kiara Advani is missing an actual fleshed-out role.”

In my opinion, Kabir’s mission in War 2 in 2025 was indeed a bigger task, or perhaps the most difficult call. Also, as per his mentor, Colonel Luthra. Hence, it took almost 2.5 hours to help the audience stay glued to the screen. Time will tell whether it was just a bark or a bite. Stay tuned with The Firstbarker for more.
