Jr NTR’s action, along with Hrithik Roshan and Kiara Advani, has made the film a talking point. While fans saw Jr NTR attending his brother-in-law Nithin Nirni’s wedding, his movie was trending online at the same time.
The film did not reach expected heights at the box office after its August release, but its OTT success is remarkable. Streaming on Netflix, War 2 recorded 3.5 million views from October 6 to 12, making it the most-watched movie in India last week, according to Armax. This shows the digital audience can completely change a film’s reach.
War 2 competed with Coolie, which also released online last week, but Jr NTR’s movie stayed ahead, especially in Hindi. Streaming in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil since October 9, the film’s stunts and action scenes have drawn viewers. Jr NTR’s performance and high-energy sequences are being praised widely.
Trade sources say War 2 has collected about Rs. 300 crores at the box office. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the action thriller continues to dominate conversations online. With trending views on social media and OTT platforms, War 2 has found a new kind of success, beyond theaters, reaching millions of homes across India.
