War 2 Box Office Predictions: Inside the YRF Spy Universe, that is, War 2, the film’s dream cast—Hrithik Roshan, back as Kabir; Telugu superstar Jr. NTR in his debut Hindi film in the franchise; and Ayan Mukerji directing. This has been creating even greater buzz in favor of the film. With lots of action, extravagant budget, and a pan-Indian approach, the movie is to become one of the great box-office spectacles for 2025.
According to the reports of the industry, War 2 has a huge production cost, estimated at almost ₹300 crore excluding any marketing expenses. This would mean that after factoring in any promotional expenses, the overall cost might shoot up to somewhere around ₹350 crore. Thus, the film would need to earn big from the opening weekend to set the mood for profitability.
First-Day Target
Trade analysts state that to make a steady reel thus staying true to breaking even fast, War 2 has to rake in at least ₹65–₹70 crore on its opening day across all languages, considering strong advance bookings, enormous South Indian market pull toward Jr. NTR, and Hrithik Roshan in himself has a pan-India fanbase.
Pan-India Benefit
Releasing simultaneously in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and more, War 2 dominates multiplexes alongside single screens. The record-breaking opening in the South is guaranteed with Jr. NTR’s presence, and the footfalls in the North are assured with Hrithik’s action-hero-man persona.

If the film achieves the expected opening-day figures, it will already be on its way to recovering costs within the first week. Based on the hype alone, along with its brand value and star power, War 2 may very well surpass break-even sooner than expected, perhaps with the potential to set new opening-day records within the Indian film industry.
