“War 2,” featuring Hrithik Roshan and NTR as the lead actors, is one of the most awaited Bollywood movies this year. The action drama has the potential to set new records at the box office. The film marks NTR’s Hindi debut.
Given the fact NTR is one of the top stars in Telugu and his films command massive openings, there is a huge demand for the theatrical rights for the Telugu states. So, there have been speculations about the price of the rights as well as the names of the producers who snatched the rights.
“War 2” is being bankrolled by Bollywood’s leading producer, Aditya Chopra, on the YRF banner. He generally doesn’t sell rights to other producers. But he is reportedly showing interest in selling off the Telugu version’s rights to Telugu producers, as they would market it better. In this backdrop, happening young filmmaker Naga Vamsi’s name popped up. Naga Vamsi is also a die-hard fan of NTR and has a long association with him.
But Naga Vamsi denied the reports of him buying the theatrical rights of “War 2” for the Telugu states.

Naga Vamsi wrote on X.com: “To all Tarak Anna fans… The news going around about us buying the rights to WAR 2 is not true. Anything related to our projects will always be announced officially through our own handles only.”
“War 2,” an action spectacle, is being directed by Ayan Mukerji. It features Kiara Advani as the heroine for Hrithik Roshan. Except for one song, the entire shooting has been wrapped up. “War 2” is scheduled for an August 14, 2025 release.
