With only four days remaining until its release, the stage is set for ‘War 2,’ with Hrithik Roshan and Junior NTR ready to dominate. The film has generated significant buzz, especially on Book My Show, where it has broken records even before its premiere. Roshan’s upcoming film has seemingly eclipsed the performance of Shah Rukh Khan’s blockbuster films in pre-sales. ‘War 2’ has already surpassed the all-time audience interest records of several major films, including those starring Salman Khan and Ranbir Kapoor, based on data from Book My Show. The film’s anticipation is fueled by its massive budget and the excitement surrounding the YRF Spy Universe. A substantial 839,000 individuals have expressed interest in watching the film, with 7,033 tickets sold in the last 24 hours. This performance has outstripped the interest in previous blockbusters like Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Jawan’ and ‘Pathaan,’ as well as Salman Khan’s ‘Tiger 3,’ Ranbir Kapoor’s ‘Brahmastra,’ and ‘Animal.’ The film is slated for release on August 14th, and expectations are high for a record-breaking opening day. However, it will face tough competition from Rajinikanth’s ‘Kuli’.
