As of August 2, 2025, Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR are preparing to lock horns with Rajinikanth's Coolie in the highly anticipated release of their action film War 2, part of the Spy Universe franchise. Despite the clash between these two superstars, the signs are favorable for Hrithik and Jr NTR, as their film aims to surpass the remarkable achievements of last year's Stree 2.

Finally, the film will strive to surpass Stree 2's remarkable profit of over 500 crore, a feat that would be an impossible task for most productions.

As the Independence Day weekend approaches, the stage is set for an epic clash between the two cinematic giants. Fans and industry observers alike eagerly await to see if Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR's War 2 can indeed emerge victorious and claim the coveted box office records currently held by the Stree franchise.
