The big wrap-up

Ayan Mukerji

After a 149-day shoot, Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR have reportedly wrapped Ayan Mukerji’s War 2 at Yash Raj Studios in Mumbai. The buzz is that the final leg featured a vibrant dance number choreographed by Bosco Martis and composed by Pritam, which had the crew in awe. Reports suggest that the film includes six major action sequences, two songs, and intense drama, promising a high-impact instalment in the YRF Spy Universe. We have also learnt that Jr NTR’s wife and children, who are huge Hrithik fans, were on set to witness the dance face-off. Post-wrap, Hrithik hosted an intimate dinner for the Telugu superstar and his family, Ayan, and the crew. With just over a month to go, the team is gearing up to release two songs and the official trailer. Kiara Advani, who is entering the spy universe with the film, recently wrapped up parts in the movie. Ayan is expected to lock the final cut, complete with VFX and background score, within the next 20 days. War 2 is set to hit cinemas on August 14 in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil. It will clash with filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj’s action thriller Coolie, starring Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna, and Aamir Khan.
