Anthuleni Katha Daily Serial – E163 – 21st Aug

Just a few days into the filming of ‘War 2’, snapshots of the lead actors, Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, have surfaced online. Despite stringent security measures on the sets of star-studded films, leaks seem to persist, raising eyebrows among fans and filmmakers alike.

In the leaked images, Hrithik Roshan dons a sleek stealth suit, while Jr NTR embodies a menacing all-black look, hinting at his portrayal of the antagonist. These images, capturing action-packed sequences, have set social media abuzz with excitement, particularly among Nandamuri fans witnessing their hero alongside Hrithik in combat mode.

However, the thrill of these leaked images comes with a twinge of concern. With much anticipation surrounding the collaboration of Tarak and Hrithik, there’s a considerable onus on the filmmakers to safeguard such sensitive on-set footage. These leaks not only dampen the surprise element but also diminish the impact of official promotional materials like first look posters and teasers.

‘War 2’ commenced its shoot at a Mumbai studio, with both Hrithik and Jr. NTR dedicating 60 days to the action-packed sequel, set to wrap up in June. As the sixth installment in the YRF SPY Universe, following the successes of ‘Ek Tha Tiger,’ ‘Tiger Zinda Hai,’ ‘War,’ ‘Pathaan,’ and ‘Tiger 3,’ the film promises to delve deeper into Hrithik’s character, as hinted in the post-credits scene of ‘Tiger 3.’

While fans eagerly anticipate the release of ‘War 2,’ these leaks serve as a reminder of the challenges faced by filmmakers in safeguarding their creative endeavors from prying eyes. As the industry strives to maintain secrecy and surprise, leaks continue to pose a formidable obstacle in the digital age.
