"Hey @tarak9999, think you know what to expect on the 20th of May this year? Trust me you have NO idea what's in store.

Not one to back down from a challenge, Jr NTR responded with equal enthusiasm and wit. Thanking Hrithik in advance, he playfully hinted at a "special return gift," suggesting that he's ready to match Hrithik's surprise with one of his own. "@Hrithikroshan sir!!! Can't wait to hunt you down to give you a special return gift Kabir…#War2," Jr NTR wrote, addressing Hrithik by his character name in the film. This response has sent fans into a frenzy, eagerly awaiting what's in store.
The exchange between the two actors is being seen as an unofficial confirmation that the teaser or first look of "War 2" will be released on May 20th, coinciding with Jr NTR's birthday. This would be a strategic move by the film's team to kickstart their marketing campaign and generate further buzz around the movie.
"War 2" is directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner. It is the next installment in the YRF Spy Universe, which includes films like "Ek Tha Tiger," "Tiger Zinda Hai," "War," "Pathaan," and "Tiger 3". The film also stars Kiara Advani in a pivotal role.
